LAT E S II iN CONSPIRACY TO ASSASSINATE THE EMPEROR OF THE FRENCH. The Paris correspondent of the Times (second edition), says : • " The conspiracy just discovered of a certain number of Italians against the life of the Emperor, seems to be marked by a more serious character than was originally supposed. The persons taken into custody are also more numerous ; successive arrests, either in consequence of disclosures made by accomplices or obtained from papers found at their lodgings, have increased the number from 3 to 21. I doubt whether it will rest here. Their examination by the Juges d'lnstruction is still going on, and it is said that abundant proofs exist of their culpability. Few authentic particulars have transpired as 'to their plans or the modes by which these plans were to be carried out. The main object, however, was to get rid of the Em peror ; the overthrow of the Imperial regime would follow as a matter of course, as well as the re-establishment of the Red Republic. They are also said to be connected with the conspirators arrested in Genoa who proposed to proclaim the Republic in that city." REVOLUTIONARY MOVEMENTS IN ITALY. PARIS, JULY 2. Revolutionary movements took place this morn ing at Leghorn and Naples. In both places the attempts were put down im mediately. TURIN, JULY 2. The insurrectionary attempt at Leghorn has been put down. The steamer Cagliari, which had left Genoa for Tunis, fell into the hands of the insurgents, who attacked the Island of Pouza, belonging to the Neapolitan Government, and set at liberty the per sons imprisoned there. The insurgents, with the released prisoners, then landed at Sapri, in the lower province. Some Neapolitan frigates captured the steamer Cagliari, and the royal troops pursued the insurgent band. The political prisoners who escaped from the Is land of Pouza were about three hundred in num ber. In conjunction with the insurgents from on board the Cagliari, they attacked the Neapolitan gendarmerie in the province of Salerno, but were dispersed, and many of them taken. The remain der fled. FRANCE• PARIS, THURSDAY EVENING. Prince Napoleon will leave, it is said, for Eng land on the 3d or sth inst. The Reine Hortense steam corvette has been placed at his disposal. The captain has received orders from the Minister of Marine on no account to prolong his stay beyond the 25th, at which date he is to return to Cher bourg, where he will take in coal and proceed without delay to Havre. BOURSE, JULY 2, Two o'CLocK.—The market has been more healthy than for some time past. Several important sales were effected on the Rente by parties connected with the corn market, as yes terday flour had fallen 21r. per sack and corn was offered. The settlement of the share account to day has passed off quietly, and prices were steady. Threes, after having been done at 67fr. 35c., im proved to 67fr. 80c., and are now quoted at 67fr. 65c. ; Mobilier varied from 1,090 to 1,10.5 fr. ; Lyons, 1,460 to 1,470 fr. ; New ditto, 867 50 to 175 fr. • Mediterranean, 1,900 to 1,910 fr. ; Northern 960 to 965 fr. ; Southern, 705 to 712 fr. 50C. ; Austrian, 640 to 642 fr. 50c. ; and Orleans, 1,450 to 1,460 fr. The rate of continua tions has been moderate for the liquidation of share accounts. TURKEY. CONSTANTINOPLE JUNE 22. The Sultan has at last undertaken his long talked of tour in the Sea of Marmora. Every one thought that he had given up the idea, or at least deferred it until the festivities of the circumcision were over, when, all of a sudden, on Saturday last at noon, the Grand Vizier received a notice that on Sunday (that is, yesterday), at 1 p.m., his Ma jesty would start, and wished the Grand Vizier and his two brothers-in-law (Ahmed Fethi, Direc tor-General of the Ordnance, and Mehmed Ali, the Capudan Pasha) to accompay him. This trip of the Sultan, ordered and counter-ordered as it was, is, like every other movement in the palace, brought into connexion with changes in the Go vernment, and speculation is so much the more 13118 Y as on one occasion a change of air for the health of the Sultan was followed by a change in the Ministry. Strange things are these changes. Since the beginning of the Ottoman history there never has been a reign during which so many changes have taken place as under the present. In 18 years as many as 17 diff , rent G,,vernments have been formed, which gives almost one for every year—n a y, if we calculate that Redschid Pasha has been twice in power for several years, we shall find that the re are almost two for each of the re maining years. This is so much the more curious as these frequent changes fall justat an epoch when Turkey is supposed to have abandoned the old system of favouritism under which the Sultan's whims were law, and to have established fixed rules according to which the Government of the empire is to be carried on. Her Majesty's ship Medina, Captain T. Spratt, left'this on Wednesday last for the Danube, where she will be of the greatest service to the Com mission on the Danube Navigation. The Medina Was up in those parts last year, and all the three branches of the river have been rninu , ely sur veyed and sounded by Lieutenant Wilkinson, un der the superintendence of Captain Spratt, who has drawn up a report on the subject. I shall have to speak of this report at some other time. I wish only to remark here that these are the first reliable sur veys ever made of that country, and that they will, together with the practical suggestions of Captain Spratt, considerably facilitate the work of the Commission. On her way from Malta to this place the Medina has made soundings between the !ormerislandan.dCan.dia,which have given some very Interesting results. , The bottom between the two islands appears to be one large valley or basin, with very steep sides, so that at 30 or 40 miles from the shore the depth rapidly increases overl,ooo fathoms, showing at the deepest point explored as much as 2 / 0 00 and odd fathoms. By an ingenious contri vance Capt. S pratt h as succee d e d i n ge tti ng up a considerable quantity of perfectly dry and hard yellowish soil from that depth, the examination of which will throw considerable light on the forma tion of the whole basin of the Mediterranean. According to an announcement of the Messageries Imperiales, the direct boats of that company will leave this from the Ist July on Wednesdays instead • f Mondays. CHINA. Letters from Hong Kong of the 10th May state that at that date the Capricieuse French f r i ga t e , the Marceau steamer, and the N i sus brig, were in the roadstead. The Virginie frigate was on a cruize visiting the other ports of the Celestial Empire, an d was to sail for the Philippine Islands about the 20th. She was to wait at Manilla for the arrival of the Nemesis, which left France in Jan uar y last. Rear-Admiral Guerin was then to give up the com mand of the squadron to Rear-Admiral Rigault de Genouilly, who has his flag on board the Nemesis, and return to France in the Virginie. Admiral Guerin has been on the Chinese station for 5 years. The same letter mentions that Sir John Bowring. the English commissioner, and M. de Bourboulon, th e French minister, were to leave in a short time IV Singapore to meet Lord Elgin and Boron Gros. important operation will be undertaken until the arrival of these last-named personages. A. letter from Copenhagen, addressed to the National Gazette of Berlin, mentions a rumour that it was in contemplation to very shortly publish au aunnesty. The chiefs the most compromised in the events of Schleswig-Holstein in 1848 to 1850—such as the Dukc d'Augustenburg and his brother, the Prince de Noer, the two members of the regency, Beseler and Count de 'lnventlow- Prmtz, and M. Prat/eke, who now holds a high office in the government of Coburg—will, however, it is said, be excluded from the benefit of the measure.

CITY, Two O'CLOCK. The Liverpool Cotton market yesterday closed firmly, and prices were at a slight improvement. The sales amounted to 7,000 bales. The Railway Share Market closed quietly, but steadily, and previous rates were well maintained. The general demand for money is tolerably active but although full rates are paid for accommodation there is an absence of pressure, and the mercantile community experience no difficulty in preparing for the engagements which have to be met to morrow, the 4th of the month. During the last few days the tendency in the rates has been to decline, and the bet bills have in some cases been negotiated at N- per cent. This to gether with the steady influx of gold into the Bank, strengthens the impression that a reduction of if not 1 per cent. will soon be made in the mini mum. Some persons are of opinion that an altera tion ought to have been made yesterday as the posi tion of the establishment is presumed to have im proved materially since the date of the last Weekly Return ; but the Court were no doubt guided by a cautious policy, and in the absence of the balance sheet showing the actual position of affairs, the public are not qualified to decide whether the course adopted is correct. Numerous half-yearly dividends are now being paid, and the interest on Consols will be distributed next week, and some relief is being thus afforded. The supply is found to be ample for all purposes, and as soon as the bills falling due to-morrow are liquidated, increased ease will no doubt be felt. _ _ _ About 170,0001. of the gold brought by the Vandenbilt and the Atlantic was sold to the Bank yesterday. This day the half-yearly meeting of the London Dock Company was held at their offices in Princes street Bank ; Mr. Cattley took the chair. The teport, stated that the number of foreign vessels which entered the docks in the six months was 462, and the receipts 249,9861. 3s. sd. The net balance standing to the credit of profit and loss was 235,6311. 9s. 4d., from which a dividend of 21. 10s. per cent. for the half-year was recommended, amounting to 94,7801. ss. sd. The stock of goods in the warehouses was 95,922 tons. A short dis cussion ensued, when the report was adopted. At the special meeting to-day of the Victoria Dock Company, a bill for enabling the directors to make a new cut eastward of their dock, and for raising additional capital, was read to the proprie tors, and approved unanimously. The value of the English Funds is maintained with firmness, but there is an absence of buoyancy, business being too dull to stimulate an an advance. Thus for some days past the movement has been rather adverse, although an improvement would have been justified on account of the favourable weather for the crops, and the general prospect of the Money Market. No fresh buyers appear, but when the dividends are paid, and the transfer bo, , ks re-open, investments to some extent may be calculated upon. Special transfers can be effected on Monday next, but the books are no , , opened to the public generally until the 17th instant. Consols to-day have been 92 , and since, 922 buyers. For the opening they are 921 The New Three per Cents. have been dealt in at 921 1. and the Reduced 921 f. Bank Stock is flat at 213 to 213 i. Exchequer Bills are now only 4s. discount to par.

Manchester, Sheffi,ld, and Lincoln, and Vale of Neath declined about ss. The Foreign and Colonial undertakings are in better favour, more particularly the Canadian lines. The Grand Trunk of Canada have advanced about 21., and Great Western ss. to 10s. East Indian have improved 10s., and Eastern of France ss. Dutch-Rhenish, Great LuxembourE, and West Flanders have been dealt in at previous quo- tations. Busiuess in Mining Shares ruled inactive, the only dealings reported being Cobre Copper at 52, and St. John Del Rey at 11. For Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous there was but little inquiry, and prices exhibited no ma terial variation from previous rates. BRITISH FUNDS THIS DAY AT ONE O'CLOCK.

Count de Nieuwerkerke, director-general of the mu seums and intendant of fine arts of the household of the Emperor of the French, has left Paris to visit the exhi bition at Manchester. The amount of silver to be despatched by the India and China mail of the 4th is nearly 860,009/. Including the quantity likely to be added at Morsel'les, the total will fall little short of 1,000,0001. We are authorised to state that, though the subject of the importation of free blacks into the West Indies was mentioned in the course of the conversation between Lord Palmerston and a deputation of the West India body introduced by Lord Shaftesbury, the noble earl is decidedly opposed to such an experiment, regarding it perilous i 4 the extreme.--Morning Paper. 2011 100 -1 100 20 20 20 1 1741 20 THE SUN, VONDON FRIDAY EVENING, JULY 3,1857 i oliaILL l klAitSLTS—Citis Day.)

THE NORTH KENT RAILWAY. I SOUFHWARK. CONCEALMENT OF BlRTlL—Catherine Carlisle, a de licate-looking female, 20 years of age, described on the charge-sheet as a furrier, was charged with concealing the birth of her new-born infant. Mary Crawley, an elderly female residing at No. 20, College-street, Tooley•street, stated that the prisoner had lodged witb her since Christmas, and she went out daily to work at a furriers. A few days ago witness had some suspicions that she was in the family way,- and she told her of it, but the prisoner laughed at it and said she was mis aken. Witness said nothing more at that time, but on Wednesday morning she spoke to her again, saying, "Kitty, you look very poorly—why don't you acknowledge that you are in the family way." She replied that there was nothing the matter with her, and went ont of the house. After she was gone witness went upstairs to her room, and then she saw some thing which induced her to believe that she had just been delivered of a child. Witness informed the police, and when she returned home she was given into custody. Mr. Thomas Evans, surgeon to the M division of police, 159, High-street, said that he was called into the Bermond4ey police-stati'm on Thursday afternoon to examine the prisor, sr, cohich he did, and he believed that she had recently been delivered of a child. Witness told her so, but she resolutely denied it. He, however, was of opinion that she had from her general appearance, and on telling her so she said that she did not know that she had. The magistrate asked him how long a time did he think had elapsed since her delivery. Dr Evans replied about twenty-four hours. Witness examined what was disc wered in her room, and that confirmed him in his opinion. The prisoner here declared that she did not know that she had given birth to a child. In fact, she was sure :-he had not, or she should have suffered a great deal. The magistrate asked the constable whether he had carefully searched the place ? The officer said he had looked ab oat, but could not find any child, neither had the prisoner made any provision for her accouchement. The magistrate sent the prisoner to her lodgings, and directed the officer to make a more minute search, and produce any further evidencs on a future day. INQUEST THIS DAY. Mr. C. J. Carttar, coroner for West Kent, re sumed the inquiry this morning, at the Plough, Lewisham, into the deaths of the eleven unfortu nate individuals who lost their lives on the North Kent Railway on Sunday night last. Mr. Bodkin, instructed by Mr. Rees, solicitor to the South Eastern Railway Company, who work the line, attended to watch the case on their behalf. Mr. Burgon, for the engine-driver and stoker ; Mr. Soloman for the relatives of Mrs. A Wilcox and Miss M. A. Howe, sisters ; Mr. W. J. Scott, for the relatives of Mr. T. Franklyn ; Mr. Norton, of the firm of Norton, Son, and Elam ; for the rela tives of H. and T. Turner (brothers-in-law) ; Mr. Armstrong for the relatives of Friucis Drake. The Hon. J. Byng, chairman of the board of directors of the South-Eastern Railway Company, was present during the day. The first witness examined was Mr. John Nel son, station-master, Lewisham—He deposed that on Sunday night the 9.15 train from Sirood ar rived at the distance signal, Lewisham, about 10.40 to the best of his recollection. it ought not to have stopped, but have run through the station about 10.20. He did not know the cause of its de tention. The train drew up at the signal distance post because the danger signal was up, in conse quence of the line being blocked between the Junc tion station and the Lewisham station. It drew ue within the distance signal, the had of the train being about 40 yards from the station mister. Witne,s went to the train to see if there was room in it for the passengers left behind by the last train, making arrangements for stopping any up train ; finding there was no room in the train, he did not have it brought to the station. He then went to the signal box, and saw the signal "stop all up," from the junction. He then tapped at the instrument two or three times, but received no reply. He went out and saw the signals up for the Mid Kenc train to be let out first. The train remained stationary from 10.40 till 10.55, when he saw an engine from Lewisham dart through the bridge with two white lights in front. He was much alarmed, and before he could jump off he heard the collision. He ran down and seeing the frightful nature of the accident he went to the driver of the 9.30 train that ran into the other, and said to him, " How is this, how came you to run past the red light?" He replied, " Its a bad job, Mr. Wilson, I did not see the red light in sufficient time to pull 4." Witness then saw Abbott, the head guard of the train running towards the station ; he desired him to run down to stop anything coming up. A thought then occurred to him to recall Abbott, which he did, and asked him to examine the distance signals. Abbott replied, " That is all correct, I saw it plainly." Witness replied, " Never mind," and asked him to go with him; they went to the signals and found them correct. Witness went back to the signal box, where he found Wild ; he looked at the telegraph needles and saw that they stood " stop all up." He asked Wild, " How's this ;" Wild replied, " I can't say—Blackheath gave me two beats on the instrument, to which I gave no reply, as the needle stood " stop all up ;" two beats indicated that the up train was ready to start, but on receiving no reply the train ought not to hav e been started, and the Blackheath station-master ought not to have detained it. If an answer had been given for the train to proceed, one beat would have been sufficient ; that might have been given without altering the needles pointing " stop all u Two dials were produced and the working of the instruments explained by a gentleman connected with the railway electric signals company. It ap peared to be the most perfect plan that possibly could be devised for safety by the prevention of a collision. To the instrument is affixed a gong and a bell for giving notice to each station, the gong being struck for down trains and the bell for the up trains, and on no occasion could they be struck by mistake. If Lewisham signalled to Blackheath " stop all up," the latter could not have altered it until another signal from Lewisham that the line was clear. Blackheath, with two beats, should have called the attention of Lewisham to the twain being ready, and even admitting Lewisham might have given a wrong signal pro vision was made for rectiying such a mistake before the trains leaving. The signals were struck by the pressure of a button and not by clock work, which gave a distinct striking that could not be mistaken in counting. The evidence of Mr. Nelson was then resumed— The last entry he found in Wild's book was the signal of the 9.15 train then standing in the station ; it is the duty of the man at the instrument to immediately enter the signals he receives, and he . had entered that the train had left Blackheath. Wit ness drew a line and wrote his name under it, ing the signal man to enter all further signals he received under it. The danger signal on the post that stopped the 9.10 train was in the same state when the 9.30 train arrived that ran into it. The signal post was under the care of Wild, and could not have been tampered with by any one during the 20 minutes that elapsed. He believed it had not been tampered with. If it had been tampered with he or Wild must have known it. (The signal book was produced and examined by the coroner and jury.) By a j uryman--The Lewisham Junction danger signal could not be seen at Blackheath, but the distance signal that stopped the 9.15 train could be seen there ; the Blackheath station master had told him so. Witness desired Wild not to interfere with the signals to Blackheath, but to let them remain as they were. There being great confusion lie went to the assistance of the sufferers. Saxby was in charge of the signals, whilst he sent Wild to the train. He believed he did not alter them ; the train was standing at the proper place wben the collision occurred. Perry alluded to the distance signal when he said he could not see the red light. It was a clear night, and the signals could be dis tinctly seen. He believed the driver (Perry) was sober. Witness did not notice the state of the breaks. It was the duty of the man Wild, who attended the electric signals, to work the other signals. He signalled of his own accord though under his (witness's) personal orders. The 9.56 Woolwich train was the first cause of the stoppage. It was stopped at New Cross for the collection of tickets. The great mischief occurred to a third class carriage in front of a break van. This was an open third-class carriage ; had it been a covered carriage no doubt it would have better resisted the accident. By Mr. Burgon—lt would not have been a prudent thing for the guard of the stationary train to have gone back and put fog signals on the rails, because he was waiting for a signal to proceed. If he had deemed it prudent to do so he should commu nicate with the driver to wait for him. In this case he ought not to have done so because the train was expecting to start every minute. He did not know that the telegraph signals were auxiliary signals. They had been used on the line ever since he had been on l i.t. In the absence of the telegraph signrls he thought the guard ought not to have gone back. He thought a danger signal sufficient protection for a train about to remain two or three minutes. If it were to remain half an hour he thought then the fog signals should be used. The telegraph signals of " clear all up" were entered in a box, and then communictted to the station master, who would inform the guard, and he the engine driver. If "all clear" was indicated, a train, be fore it was started, would be signalled, and it was often started before an answer could be returned. He denied that the 9.15 train passed the distance signal at a speed of five miles an hour. The driver of that train passed it and came on to the Sema phore signal. It was the practice on the line for non-stopping and other trains not to treat the distance signal or a stopping signal The case was proceeding when we went to press. INTERESTING MECHANICAL EXPERIMENT.—Among the many surprising achievements of science and art few will be deemed more interesting to the gentler sex than the successfnl termination of a long series of experiments which have for a long period tested the ingenuity of those by whom the novel task has now been accomplished. Without enumerating the disappointments which attend all experiments, it will be more agreeable to follow the processes which have been attended with so perfect a re sult. An imitation of the beautiful Indian work of Peshawur was required ; and, from the close-matted nature of that embroidery, and the complicated detail which constitutes the Hindoo-Etrurian style of work, ' all attempts with the needle were abandoned, and a skilful compressing process was adopted. Engraved copper-plates are charged with the colouring matter and placed on a metal box connected with a steam-engine. The box is fixed in a strong table, and a pressure of 70 tons, by means of a hydraulic machine , is applied to thr fabric, which has previously been placed, with five thick blankets, upon the copper-plate. While the fabric is under this enormous pressure the steam is turned into the box, and the design is thus raised and fixed with an effect that cannot be distinguished at a short distance from the finest descriptions of braiding. The most deli cate, as well as the roughest, fabrics can be so treated. The effect is singularly beautiful, and the articles now produced —namely, a jacket and dress of light and ei. quisite material, and of every nuance of colour —can be Purchased by a lady at a cost less than the mere imita. five embroidery at t e mpted by the needle. Jay and Smith, the proprietors of the Sponsalia, Regent-street, are the fortunate originators and patentees of this charm ing novelty —one which bids fair, as the French say, to have a grand succes.--frfornmg /Iva/a. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. DARING ROBBERY IN THE STREET.—This day James Mead, aged 19, was charged before Mr. Bingham, with the following daring robbery in Carlisle-street, Soho, yesterday afternoon : Mrs. Mary Maddle, residing at 21, Frith-street, said that between four and five o'clock, she was going along Carlisle-street, towards Soho-square, having a parasol and a purse in her left hand, when the prisoner suddenly sprung at her and snatched her purse, which had some money in it from her. He ran away toward Soho-square. She called stop thief. Went in pursuit of him and saw him stopped by a policeman. The purse has not been found. _ _ _ Sergeant Holloway, C 8, stated that in seeing the prisoner running away, and hearing the cry of " stop thief," he followed the prisoner, and overcook him in Oxford•etreet. On laying hold of the prisoner, he said You have made a mistake ; another man took the purse from the lady. He dropped it, and I picked it up and dropped it." A. solicitor, who was engaged for the prosecutrix, said that his client did not want to prosecute, and re marked that these daring cases of robbing ladies were so frequent, that he thought the prisoner ought to be punished. The prisoner pleaded guilty, when Mr. Bingham observed that it was a case with which he thought he ought not to deal. He would give the highest punishment he had the power to do. The prisoner was sent for six months to the House of Correction, DARING BURGLARY.—John Bowley and Thomas Brown, both young men, were charged with a burglary. Last night, between eleven and twelve o'clock, as policeman C 150, was passing down Great Windmill street, ho was told that there was a light in the workshop of Mr. G. Barrett, Bull-yard. He went there and saw a light passing to and fro. He got the assist ance of two other constables and went to the shop. Sergeant Glass, C 3, entered a window that was broken. They there found the prisoners and took them into cus tody. C 150 and another constable entered, when they found the same boxes had been forced open with a crow bar, and in a basket were some leaden pipes, some pieces of brass, and other articles. They were taken to the police-station. The foreman of Mr. Barrett identified the articles as the property of his employer. A police-constable, in answer to the magistrate, said that he was not aware that the prisoners were known. Mr. Bingham, upon the prisoners saying they would leave the case in his (the magistrates) hands, stated that bad they been known he would have sent them for trial. They were severally sent for six months' to the House of Correction. MARKET NEWS.—(This Day.) CORN EXCHANGE. There was only a moderate supply of English wheat in to-day's market, coastwise and by land carriage. For good dry samplos we had a fair inquiry, and Monday's prices were well supported. Inferior kinds, however, met a dull sale, at barely Monday's currency. The imports of foreign wheat are 5,370 qrs. The amount of business doing in that grain was very limited, but we have no change to notice in its value. Barley was in short supply, and good request, at fully late rates. _. . . The transactions in malt were not extensive. Prices, however, were supported. We were but moderately supplied with oats, which moved off freely, at extreme currencies. Both beans and peas were quite as dear as on Monday. Flour sold slowly, at barely stationary prices. ARRIVALS TIM WEEK. Wheat. Barley. Malt. 2,2101 20 550 Oats.

TEA.—The market has been very buoyant, and large transactions were entered into at improved rates. Greens met a good enquiry, and fine qualities of scorched were eagerly brought up. b'lMAlL — Business ruled rather dull, holders generally being unwilling to reduce prices. The sales have been ' confined to a few hogsheads of West India at about for mer values. In the refined market prices have been easier. Brown lumps were quoted 63s 6d per cwt. COFFEE.—The demand has rather fallen off, but no re duction in prices can be quoted. Plantation Ceylon and Jamaica were dealt in to a limited extent. RICE.—An active inquiry has been experienced, and the late advance has been in all cases fully maintaineJ. Large sales of Madras have been effected by private contract.

EXTRAORDINARY SUICIDE OP A YOUTH.—Yesterday the faintly of a gentleman, named Marshall, residing at 151, Sloan!-street, Chelsea, were plunged into a state of deep affliction in consequence of one of the sons, a fine in telhgent youth, between 15 and 16 years of age, committing suicide by throwing himself off the Kensington-gardens bridgeinto the Serpentine river. From the best infor mation that can be at present collected respecting the the di,ti essing affair, it appears that between nine and ten o'clock ~n Wednesday evening, a young gentleman was noticed to ascend the parapet of the bridge in ques tion and precipitate himself into the water ; an instant alarm was given, when the boats of the Royal Humane Society put off from the north shore, and threw the drags into the river near the spot where the unfortunate youth had disappeared. It was more than half an ho'ir before the body was discovered, when it was taken to the Receiving-house, and Dr. Christia n, the medical attendant of the society, endeavoured by every possible means to resuscitate the body, bus witnout uccessit.N cause, as yet can be a9signed for the youth corn= tug the rash act. ELECT/ON CO MA YO. S.—(This Day. EXAMINATION 01' DR. WHALE, ARORBISHOr Or TITAIf. The committee assembled thii morning at 11 o'clock, and the examination of the Rev. Dr. lYl`Flale was pro eeeded with. The greatest interest existed, and the room was densely crowded. Mr. Smith said it woull be recollected that at the adjournment of the committee. the Archbishop wee about to read a pastoral letter that had been istued by him to his clergy. He proposed to commence this morn ing with the reading of the document. [The Archbishop then read the letter in question.. The document, after relating to the. condition of the Roman Catholic Church, and to the danger that bad been entailed upon it by persons professing that religion, went on to advise the people to conduct themselves in an orderly and peaceable manner during the election, and it also advised the clergy to use their best endeavours to procure the return of the candidate they thought most calculated to promote the interesta of the county of Mayo. No parties were mentioned in the document by name. At the conclusion of the reading of the docutnent; in answer to questions put to Mr. M. Smith, the Arch bishop said the paper from which I cut the slip 'I have been reading, was the Dublin Freeman's Journal. At the last election my opinions were opposed to those of Colonel Higgins. In 1853 [ voted, lam sorry to say, for Colonel Higgins, but at that time I agreed wita him in political opinions. In 1852 Colonel Higgine was under stood to be a supporter of the repeal of the Ecclesiasti cal Titles Bill, and a supporter of Tenant Right. At the last election I had no doubt Cul. Higgins forfeited the pledges he gave in 1852. I considered as Col. Higgins had stated that he was about to become a member of an independent Irish party, that he by that means had, to a certain extent, become a supporter of the Government, as the party was about to give it their support. I con sider my clergy incapable of acts that have been imputed to them. If they had acted in such a way I should not have failed to point them out, as I have a right to do. I do not believe the accusations that hav e been made against them.. I never in the course of my life said I would adopt and secure the return of any candidate. On the contrary, I have always said that I would use my best endeavours to secure the return of the best candidate. I do not believe my p9sition in the Catholic Church precludes me from exercising my rights as a citizen. lam subject to all the civil duties of a citizen, and therefore I consider I have a perfect right to exercise my privilege of voting at elections. In 1852 I voted for Col. Higgins and Mr. Moore. I never saw the placard just put into my hand during the election. It was a forgery [the placard in question was the one soliciting support for Colonel. Palmer, and referred to denunciations from the altar]. I was not on the hustings on the day of election, but if I had been asked to second Mr. Moore I would have done so. By Mr. O'Malley--I cannot tell now where the Free. man's Journal is that I cut the pastoral from I have been reading. I don't recollect seeing in tbe same paper the resolutions referred to yesterday for the clergy to give the support to Mr. Moore in preference to Colonel Higgins. I cannot say they did not appear, but I did not see them. I believe the pastoral was inserted in the 7uam, Herald a week after the election. It appeared in the Freeman's Journal first. I wrote a few private letters to my clergy. I sent it in on Friday, and it appeared on Saturday. By a Member—Then you believe all your clergy bad a copy of the pastoral ? Dr. M‘Hale—Yes. I got the pastoral on the Mon- day, but I was told that some people in Mayo got it on Sunday. I wrote about three or four private letters to my clergy. I wrote to Mr. Waldron. I did not write to Mr. Morgan. By Colonel North—The pastoral could not be printed in the Tuant Herald before. It was because 1 printed it at Castlebar, and then sent it to Dublin. There are printing offices in Castlebar, but they could not print so expeditiously as the Dublin printers. By the Chairman--The printer said it could not be circulated so expeditiously as in Dublin. It was printed on the Friday, as the polling was on the Monday. By Mr. O'Malley—Was not the private letter you wrote at variance with the pastoral. The question was objected to, and was not answered. By Mr. O'Malley —1 am under the impression that Colonel Higgins is a pledge breaker. Mr. O'Malley—What vote ? Dr. Mfflale—All his Parliamentary career. Mr. O'Malley—Will you tell one ♦ote ? Dr. M'llale—l object to all his votes. Mr. O'Malley—l want you to mention one vote. _ _ Dr. M`Hale:—l look upon such a vote as Colonel Hig gins gave on the tenant right question as a mockery, de lusion and a snare. Mr. O'Malley—Then it was for supporting tenant right that you opposed him I Dr. M'Hale—l believe that a person voting for, and not supporting a certain measure, is a pledge breaker. Mr. O'Malley—Where did Colonel Higgins break a pledge. Dr. M`Hale —I cannot say, but it is the opinion of every person who did not not expect place or pension that he wai a pledge breaker. Mr. O'Malley—Do you think that all who voted for Col. Higgins voted with the expectation of patronage or place 4_ _ _ Dr. M‘Hale—That is my decided opinion. Mr. O'Malley—Do you know that any person took a bribe on the occasion ? Dr. M'Hale—l do. A layman took a bribo of two sovereigns, and then banded it to me. Mr. O'Malley—Do yo consider a voter to be free if he is controlled by his landlord, but open to the influence of the clergy ? Dr. M'Hale—l do. Mr. O'Malley—Then the influence you possess you consider you have a right to exercise I Dr. M'Hale—The influence I have used in elections is an influence I am prepared to use on all occasions. I reprehend fraud, violence, and drunkenness. Mr. O'Mally—Do you not believe that the Irish peasant, in the exercise of his election faanchise, ought not to be guided by the priests. Dr. M'Hale—lf he is in doubt how to act, I think the best person he can consult is his priest. In answer to further questionsiof Mr. O'Malley, the Archbishop said—l take my share in civil burdens. I pay the income tax under coercion—(laughter)—and I believe there is a fellow-feeling. I protested against the payment of poor-rates, but I have to pay them. By Mr. Pullen—l don't recollect ever receiving any complaint as to the conduct of the clergy at elections. I don't ever suspend a priest for his conduct at an election. This question concluded the evidence of the Arch bishop, and he then left the committee-room. Mr. O'Malley said that was the close of the case for the petition on that part of the case. Mr. M. Smith said it had been intimated to him yes terday, that the examination of witnesses on the part of the petition, would occupy at least two days, and be had arranged accordingly. He was not now prepared to go on. After a short conversation the committee adjourned. LLOYD'S SHIPPING.—(This Day.) LONDON, July 3.—Wind this day at noon, S. to S.W.; light breeze, and cloudy.
