of tea to the same date were 78,000,0001b5., and and of silk, 65,000 bales. In tea there was nothing doing, and the season was late. The British force had left for the Peiho, and a collision was considered inevitable. THE FROME MURDER. All Mr. Kent's family have been privately examined, and on Tuesday Elizabeth Gough, the nurse, was taken into custody. WRECK OF THE SAPPHIRE.

American, picked up from life-boat. The crew left the Sapphire in two boats, and both were attacked by natives; there can be no doubt that all in one boat, eighteen in number, were mur dered, except Law, who was picked up by the boat that escaped. The names of the missing persons are now published. The accounts from the provinces intimate a decided improvement in the appearance of the -wheat crop. Sir Moses Montefiore has written to the Times, , suggesting a subscription for the Syrian Christians, ~ a nd sending himself a cheque for £2OO. Lord Robert Montague, M.P., presided last night at a public meeting of the building trade in furtherance of the nine hours' movement. _ _ _ The suspension of Messrs. Robert Freeland Brothers, Manchester, shippers to India, is announced. The liabilities are reputed at £60,000. A lady named Feltham, charged with robbery at a fancy fair, at the Crystal Palace, was yester day tried at the Central Criminal Court, and sen tenced to six months' imprisonment in Newgate. A bill has been brought into Parliament by the Board of Trade, entitled, "The Clearance Inwards and Lien for Freight Bill," the object of'which is to make general provision for continuing the shipowners' lien for freight after the goods have been removed from the ship. A notice from the War Office has been issued, containing instructions respecting the brigade field-day for Volunteers, at Bromley,: on Satur .day. Major-General Eyre, commanding at .Chatham, will act as inspecting officer. In order to give greater effect to. the .sham fight, . . a corps. .of the Royal Artillery will be present. The Times says that when Mr. Gladstone brings forward• the vote for the Chinese war to-night; Sir John Pakington, who was the first to give voice to the general indignation when the news of the Peiho treachery arrived, will make . a motion which has all the superficial appearance of hostility to the war for which Mr. Gladstone is providing the sinews. At a conference of gentlemen from all parts of the country, held yesterday, on the course to be pursued in order to defeat the step taken by the Lords, on the paper duty,„a resolution was passed alleing upon members of the House of Commons to use any means that the forms of the House allow to prevent the passing of supplies until the act of the Peers has been set aside. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS.-YEBTERDAY. Lord LYNDHURST moved the second reading of the Jews Act Amendment Bill. The, object of the measure was to prevent the necessity of separate resolution whenever a Jew took his seat in the House of Commons, by making that resolution a standing order, " Lord CHLIIISFORD opposed the bill, urging that the act as it stood precisely fulfilled the intention of the legislature. Lord Baotou...lt urged the House not to reject this measure, not because they had not the right to reject it, but because it seemed a fair and reasonable mode of carrying out the wishes of the Houseof Commons. He took the opportunity of assert ing the right of their Lordships to reject any bill whatever whenever they thought fit. The motion was agreed to, and the bill ordered to be committed. ' • The Earl of DERZY gave notice that on that day week he should tall attention to the state of public business, not in order to censure the Government, but in reference to the general conduct of business. The Earl of ELLuimouoron asked why the money arising from the booty captured at Bunbecked, in 1858, had not been distributed. The Duke of ARGYLL said that the reason was, that no report bad been received from the Indian Government. Lord MONTEAOLE strongly censured the Indian Council for its negligence in the affair. The Didemnity and the Local Taxation Bills were read a second time. The Railway Cheap Train and the Augmentation of Small Benefices (Ireland), the Universities and Colleges Estate, and the Phcenia Park Bills, passed through committee. The Law and Equity Bill was read a third time and passed. The Earl of MATO moved for a select committee to inquire into the state of the harbour at Holyhead, and the cause of the numerous wrecks occurring there ; and into the plans of Pie Admiralty for the construction of a packet station at that -place. • • The Duke of SOMERSET observed that the present harbour had been erected under the advice of a commissioner, and lie could not rake on himself the responsibility of constructing a new one. Tha present works ought to be completed before any further steps were taken. As to the committee, he saw no practical use in its appointment. After a short discussion, the motion was withdrawn; and the }Ouse adjourned at half-past seven. HOUSE OF COMMONS.---YESTERDAY. The morning sitting of the House of Commons was oe'u pied with the consideration in committee of the Bankruptcy Bill. some progress was made with the clauses up to clause let, clause 102 being struck out and the others postponed. In the evening, replying t 3 Mr. Corry, The CuancatiLoa of the E'en enuEa. said, that, by a recent arrangement, the Galway steam-packet contract had _been trans rred to the Montreal and Ocean Company, but the con sent Ni the House was necessary to the completion of the arrangement. For this purpose a copy of the assignment had been placed in their hands, coupled with an intimation that an immediate answer was necessary. Under these drum *tancee the government felt that they couid not grant their unction to the arrangement. itt reply to Mr. Hodgson, 1 7:2e CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that Was 143 in tention 1.2 proceed with his proposal for shortening the time of the malt ,:cdits, but not at present to propose any discount the importation of foreign malt w as sane on the ditty. 1.; tioned it was inteti3 t o to iltodify the existing ex c i se restric tions. Sir C. Napier and ?4r. 011410 haying asked what steps the Government intended to take tor the protection of British lilterests in Syria, Loyd J. RUSSELL entered into some &Aids in reference to dike itninedte cause, each party lays the blame cn the other. Whoever 4111 t, the European Powers are bound !to do their utmost V) Atop massacre. At this moment 20,00 . 0 persons were wandering d e , !itute about the mountains. Owing to expected disturhances in En.,:;!lrla and other parts of Turkey, troops had been despatched in that a::: Ftion, so that not more than 400 soldiers were available to meet to. dis turbances iu Syria. The main object of sending British ships to the spot, was not only to protect our own interests, but to strengthen the hands of the Turkish authorities now pro ceeding thither, in their attempts to deal with the insurgents. Mr. Gasouay observed that no European would be so useful in such an emergency as Mr. Wood, late Consul at Damascus. The influence of that gentleman was so great that if he were now sent to the Libanus, the most important consequences would ensue. Sir H. WILLOUGHBY observed that the Turkish troops were prevented by treaty from entering the Libanus. Lord PALMERSTON observed that there was no treaty, but an arra ngement, whereby the p e o ple of the Libanus were left to their OWN goverment. On the motion for going into committe of supply, CowPER 9 in reply to Admiral Walcott, explained the . delay in the completion of the Nelson monument was the anxiety of str E. Lindsay to make the lions of the base worthy of the subject and of the British lion. Sir ii. Pest moved for an ad dress for copies of papers Vglittlng to the 114c4thed annexation of sicily, to Piedmont, due} Iq tiny information repeiyed by her Majesty's Government as tq the probable demands of Fpnce, consequent op on ph , e vent of that annexation taking place ; also, for any e‘e e ee. ehowing that her Majesty's ereyernweut nave, within the l ast few weeL, intimated to the Government o f Turin that the co ntinued aggreSSiv? pelicy of that government would not b e elated out viewed with indifference by Great Britain. Ile p the irfire enee importance of the events n ow in progress in the eolith of Europe--eevents of greater import than those which mowed in 1848, and which, notwith standin g , had produced far less discussion. 11 -re Caile4 ÜBen the foreign minister to declare the intentions of the coyernmeet. lie could speak out when he pleased. He had spdle - en'ot!t well and boldly in d e fence of Switzerland; let him speak out now. It was on acco ten of the unsettled state of Italy that England was armilig'. And with whatever admiratioa we viewed the exploits of Garil'allll) we could not shut our eyes to these political consequences. The object appeared to be the union of Sicily to that same Sardinian ;:kfen'erelt who had just so basely betrayed Savoy and Switzerla id. After tracing the history of Sicily for the lkst century, be pointed out the danger the Sicilians now ran if they accepted the insidious offers of France and Sardinia. lle.called npen the British Geyernment to refuse its sanction to any union between Sicily and thc latter rower, declaring that the only result would be the establish ment of French, to the detriment of British interests. Lord JouN RusSELL expressed the cause of the forbearance of the honourable baronet, and of those who agreed with him, in reference to this difficult and delicate question. Still it was not easy to discover what were his own views and opinions on the subject. It was impossible for uc to shut our eyes to all that had passed in Italy since 1815. Austria had tried the system of force in Italy, and was now compelled to admit that she had finished. The result bed been to make the Italian people utterly averse to Austrian rule. The eceasenuences eghich had resulted since 1848 were inevitable sooner or Itter. England at the commencement of the war neither had nor could have for,eseen the demands made by France for the annexation Ut SayOy and Nice. The British Government had never con cealed their objeetions to that annexation. Meanwhile the Italians, after suffering for centuries the reproach of their dissensions and the utmost misgovernment, naturally seized upon the opportunity of ;anion and liberty. Those objects they partially achieved under the King of Sardinia. France, thereupon, enforced her demand, founded Qll up the Sardinian treaty, declaring at the same time that she neyer would resort to Mice to attain the sovereignty of the provinc es s h e c l a i m ed. What course could the British Government pursue under such circnnistances bet to leave the Italians free to follow their own ounsel. They had hitherto shown themselves contented with the progress of events. With regard to Sicily, in particular, Lord J. Russell briefly reviewed the policy which England had pursued towards that island since 1806, when it was solely through British protection that t he Spaniel?, Boprbon monarch Preserved his country to the present day, explaining the cause which had rendered abortive Lord .pinto's attempts to secure a liberal constitution for the Sicilians, in 1848, and recapitu lating the eftbrts made subsequently by advice and remon strance to enforce on the Neapolitan Government the expedi ency and justice of any rate ruling its aubjeqsaceoran g to law. If that advice had b een re j ec t e d, the fault lay with the King of Naples and his advisers. The English Government had done its best to fulfil th e d u ti es o f an a lly to the Soverei gn an d to advocate the cause of humanity towards hie subjects. Pasee n g Ooli f cra to recent °eminences, the noble lord described the events ribaldi's enterprise, eulogising the gallantry hf the leader, and speaking with admiration o f the rapid and miraeniour; success that had attended his advances. This success had introduced a new element into the question. The concessioa made by the King of Naples to his subjects might now prove too late. It was still, however, a very doubtfil question, whether the , people of Northern and of Southern Italy could be amalgamated under the rule of one sovereign. It might be that the King of Naples could cont ive to reconcile his former subjects to a continuance of his sove reignty. It might be that the Sicilians would. require and obtain a separate constitution. The British Government were ready to acquiesce in either settlement, preserving only their adherence to one principle, viz. that the issue, whether rela ting to Sicily, to Naples, or to the Roman States, should be entirely left to the free arbitration of the subject-population themselves. All the sympathies and interests of England were enlisted on behalf of the independence and prosperity of Italy. Mr. KINOLAKE rejoiced to heat that Austria had abandoned all idea of maintaining its military predominance in Italy. He inquired whether there were any security against the exercise of a similar domination by the Emperor Napoleon, and showed cause for believing that Sardinia had already become an obedient vassal of France. Further comments of a miscellaneous character were offered by Mr. Whiteside, Mr..Monsell, Mr. Griffith, and Mr. Scully. The motion was then negatived, without a division. On the following motion : "That the Speaker should leave the chair," Sir J. TRELAWNEY interposed some comments upon the dis graceful and discreditable position in which, he contended, the House was left by the unsatisfactory result of the controversy with the House of Lords, on the question of privileges. Sir IL WlLLoconav called attention to the unsatisfactory state of the estimates for the expenses of the China war, and insisted that a more detailed statement ought to be submitted to the House, distinguishing between the various kinds of expenditure, and setting forth in particular the expenses on account of the British forces, and giving an abstract of the moneys that had already been paid or drawn for up to the present time on account of the Chinese war. General PEEL entered into various details respecting the military expenditure; and remarked that as long since as February last he had declared that the 000,000 then asked for would prove altogether insufficient to defray the charges already incurred in anticipation of the war in China. After a few words from Mr. B. Cochrane and Mr. Warner, Th: , House divided. For going into committee, 198 ; against, 13; majority, 185. The House having gone into committee of supply, Mr. S. HERBERT moved a vote of credit to the amount of £3,800,000 on account of the war with China. Admitting that the estimate now before the House was given in the gross, and to a great extent upon guess-work, he submitted that it was im possible to state details upon the subject, and that any attempts to specify particular items must prove illusory. After giving some explanations touching the despatch of troops, transports, tirc., he observed that the vote comprised a sum of about £443,000, relating to past transactions arising ,out of charges left unsettled from the last China war. Of the total amount now asked for, he believed, on a rough calculation, that £2,000,000 would be required for expense incurred in India ; £1,500,000 for military, and £300,000 for naval expenses, in England. Sir. H. Wat.obounir observed that the mixing up of India and home expenditures was introducing serious confusion into our finances. He hoped that reason would be found hereafter to keep accounts separate. After some observations from Mr. F. Hankey, Sir J. North cote, General Peet, and Sir F. Baring, The CHANCELLOR ,of the Excusciusa said that the announce ment of the large sum required for the Chinese war took'him self by surprise, as it seemed to have surprised the House. The demand was also so recent that he knew nothing about it when Making his, budgetary statement,. and could not then even introduce the £443,000 for past transactions. He proceeded to explain the method by which charges incurred for wars in Asia were defrayed in part by the Indian government, and which placed it out of the power of the home ministry to form detailed estimates, obliging them to submit merely conjectural statements of the probable expenditure to Parliament. Sir J. PAKINOTON thought that the House had a right to demand fuller information, not only as to t.4e expense, but also as to the policy of the Government with regard to the China war. If the costs of the war could not be told when the Budget was brought forward in February, the event was at all events probable, and the Government were not justified, under such circumstances, in remitting taxes, and tampering with the finanees of the country. Lord J. RUSSELL recognised the serious responsibility arising out of the proceedings in China, but observed that the late Administration must share in that responsibility, the events which had since culminated in war having occurred while they held office, and in pursuance of instructions sent out by Lord Malmesbury or Sir J. Pakington himself. Sir J. ELPHINSTONE having briefly spoken, A motion was made for adiourriing the debate, but, after a few words from Lord Palmerston and Mr. Disraeli,rthe motion was withdrawn, and tb,e vote agreed to. . The House then resumed. On the motion' for 'the third reading of the Annuity Tax (Edinburgh) Abolition Bill, Mr. DUNLOP moved that the bill be read a third time that day three months. On a division, there appeared for the third meeting, 204; against, 17 ; majorfty, 187. The bill was then read a third time and passed. The remaining businers was disposed of, ;and the House adjourned at thirteen minutes to four. THE MYSTERIOUS TRAGEDY NEAR F R 0 M'E. ARREST OF THE NURSE. FaoNE, Wednesday, Noon. The mysterious and barbarous murder of the little boy, Francis Kent, on Saturday week, has formed the subject• of investigation by the magistrates and con stabulary of the district for the past three days, during which the whole family has been privately examined. This investigation has resulted in the apprehension of Elizabeth Gough, the nursemaid, who is to be examined before the Trowbridge bench of magistrates this day. The grounds of her arrest are at present unknown, SENTENCE OF DEATH ON A ROMAN CATHOLIC PRIEST. Yesterday, at the Central Criminal Court, London John Spencer (60), the Roman Catholic priest, who was acquitted yesterday upon two indictments charging him with feloniously assaulting two boys who had been placed with him as scholars, was this morning tried upon a third charge, imputing an offence of the same description to the prisoner in reference to another boy named Reuben Brusher.—Mr. Cooper prosecuted. The prisoner was defended by Mr. Peirce.—The evidence in this case was similar to that produced in the others. It appeared that the boy was the son of 4 wood turner, and the prisoner asked his father to let him come to his school, and to sleep with him, as he said he was very fond of children, and his son was a very clever lad, and he wished to have his society.—The defence in this case was the saute as in the ethers, namely, that there was no corroboration or confirmation of the evidence of the principal witness.—The Lord Chief Baron having sum med up, the jury retired to deliberate upon their ver dict. In about half an hour they returned into court, and gave a verdict of Guilty.--Sentence of death was recorded. THE LATE MASS MEETING. TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES. SIR,- r ean anything be more ridiculous than the mi serable show up of the Radicals on Monday last. It is quite refreshing to see the respectable and independent portion of the liberal press of the town denouncing the meeting, and the want of taste of certain demagogues. There are some men always ready for any dirty work, provided it be attended with a little popularity and a chance of a brawl. The general feeling on 'Change is one of sympathy with the poor old gentleman, and ex- M.P., "the light of other days," who took the chair and was pitched into the crowd ; their only regret be ing that the airing was not reserved for another indi vidual. Altogether it was a nea t exhibition, and a few more such would annihilate them as a faction. —Y ours truly, 'Change, 12th July, 1860. OBSERVER. COUNTY COURT.-YESTERDAY. (Before Mr. W. A. HULTON.) The following debtors were sent to gaol in default of payment :—Mark Pickup, occupying a room in the house 8, Pennington-street, bricklayer, sixteen days ; John Murphy, 64, Albert-street, Park, ship-carpenter, eighteen days ; William Renshaw, 79, Fleet-street, brass finisher, sixteen days in a month ; John Owen, 32, Wood-street, Park, engineer, fifteen days, in a month to pay 8s ; Peter Rhoday, painter, 11, New Wapping, twenty days ; Geo.

Halsall, at Messrs. Robertson and Mason's, Old Hay market, ten days in a month. COUNTY MAGISTRATES' COURT. YESTERDAY. (Before Messrs. HALL and PRESTON.) SHARPERS AT THE RACES.—TWO men, named Samuel Aspinall and Thomas, were brought up on a charge of card-sharping, at the Liverpool Races, on Wednesday. The prosecutor was a gentleman named Edward O'Connor, who stated that he was invited by Thomas to enter a tent, where he found Aspinall engaged in gambling with some cards. Several parties were busily betting, and he was induced to bet Li on a game, which he, of course, lost. He then gave the prisoners into custody.—Aspinall was represented by Parker, who, in defence, stated that the prisoner was a respectable man living in Leeds. He attended the races as a spectator, and there he, as a simple Yorkshireman, was induced to gamble, whereby he lost a large amount of money.—The prisoner stated that he was in business as a eheesemonger, in Crown-street, • Leeds. He had no witnesses to character in Liverpool.—The Super intendent of the County Police said he could produce a witness to speak to character ; and a constable was put in the box who stated that he had seen Aspinall at the last Manchester races, where be was betting, and where he offered the constable a bribe for keeping silence. A quantity of money and a business book was found upon his person, but some suspicion was enter tained that the bopk was not genuine. Thompson had nothing at all to say in his own defence. The prisouets were sent to gaol for one month each;. the cost of the prosecution being deducted from the money found upon them. ATTEMPTING TO 'PICK POCKETS.—George Wallace was charged with attempting to pick the pockets of a man named Strettle. P. C. Mooney stated that the prisoner was In company with thieves. The prisoner could not give a satisfactory account of himself, and he was sent to gaol for two months. ANOTHER CHARGE OF GAMBLING.—Robert Guthrie waschargod-with gambling by P. C. Mooney. He was taken in the act. The prisoner said he came with Mr. Wood, from Bootle, with whom he 'was a waiter. Com mitted for one month. . ALLEGED ROBBERY WITH VIOLENCE AT THE RACE COURSE.—A man named Thomas Douglas was brought up on a charge of robbery with violence. The prisoner was defended by Ur. Dodd. About seven o'clock on the previous evening an old woman asked Mrs. Jane Lester, the wife or a smith residing in Richmond-row, for alms. She refused to comply, and the prisoner remarked, "You ought to give the, woman something." The prisoner became very violent, and took out a knife. but Mr. Lee, the brother-in-law Of Mrs. Lester, 'and others, went to her assistance, and a woman attempted to take the knife out of the prisoner's hand, when that person threatened to " rip her up." The prisoner seized the watch chain of Mr. Lee, and suedeeded, in spite of his efforts, in severing it from the watch and giving it to One of his companions. A policeman arrived, and th e prisoner was taken ilgo custody. The prisoner was committed for trial, bail being taketi for his appearance. ALLEGED MYSTERIOUS MURDER. A Thurles correspondent of one of the Dublin papers writes :—" The following strange facts have been brought to light in the neighbourhood of Thurles On Pridity morning last, as Mr. John Tennant, of Parks town, was tx.king his accustomed walk over his estate, Or the purpose of looking over his fox covers, he hap pened to be examining a portion of a dry sand-quarry In `he vicinity of carrigeen, a place situate within about four milee ;he town of Thurles, e",'"!len he discovered in a shallow recess in the quarry the skeleton of d fall-grown woman. Having made his nhVervations and taken :tile necessary precautions to secure the remains from being interfered with, Mr. Tennant immediately sent informft tion of the circumstance to Mr. Joseph H. Bradshaw, sub-inspector of constabulary at Thurles, who had the proper steps taken to preserve everything as it was when found, until an inquest could be held. In the course of the same day (Friday), the county coroner was in attendance, with an intelligent jury, who, having carefally examined the position of the skeleton, returned the following as their verdict :—"rhe skeleton of a female, name unknown, has been found in a hole in a quarry, at Carrigeen, on Friday last, the 6th of July ; and we find that the said female was murdered by some person or persons unknown.' The jury were irre sistibly forced to the above conclusion by the position waleU 4ue uvuy nau peen onicu proved that it had been first cut into pieces, and then placed in the hole in which it was found, as on any other supposition it, would have been impossible to forse it into so circumscribed a space. As to the time at which it may have been placed there there can be but conjecture. The only portion of clothing discoverable about the remains consisted of part of a cotton stocking, which remained on one of the leg bones ; there was also a quantity of dark brown hair attached to the skull. Sub-Inspector Bradshaw attended the inquest, and has commenced a series of inquiries throughout the neighbourhood, which it is hoped may ultimately lead to the discovery of this mysterious and barbarous murder. Much interest is manifested through out the entire locality by all ranks to obtain some clue to the victim and authors of this foul crime, the result vhich will be duly communicated!, SUlClE.E.—Yesterday a man, named lenrT ila i de p on, who lived at 1 9 , Rose -vale, shot himself th roug h the head and died almost immediately. The pa r ti c ul a rs will be aseertainsd this day qt. inquest that will be held on the body, SUSPENSION OF PAYMENT.—The sus Pension of Messrs. Robert Freeland, Brothers, Manchester shippers to I n di a , is announced. The liabilities are reported at £60,000 to £LPO,OOO, but well-informed peop le say £60,000. It is feared that one or two smaller s to pp a g es may follow, but most of the creditors aro large and wealthy houses. A man named Went has been commi t t ed to take .111 s trial at the next Monmouth assize, charge d with making seizure on the goods of George Arnolds, of Skenfrith, on the false pretence of being an officer of the county court. Arnold actually owed the money for which the seizure was made, and West seems to have paid the amount be received to the person to whom it was 4 14 e, I.lut the illegal manner in which he acted renders him liable to transportation for seven years. The Atlantic Royal Mail Steam Navigation Com pany's steamship, Prince Albert, is at present in Dock at Cork, where . she is getting h er b ottom c l eane d fmci painted, and is expected in Galway the end of this week.

ORANGE ANNIVERSARY YESTERDAY. In accordance with the usual custom, the Orange Lodges of Liverpool celebrated the twelfth of July—the anniversary of the battle of Aughrim—by a procession during the day, and numerous convivial meetings in the evening. At ten o'clock nearly four thousand Orangemen, assembled outside the borough boundary, at a ppint beyond the Zoological Gardens. The office-bearers an 4 members were decked out in the usual paraphernalia and insignia of the order, accompanied by bands of music and flags of various devices. About forty lodges were represented, more or less numerously, each of whom dis played a grand banner, besides numerous smaller flags, inscribed with various loyal, patriotic, and Protestant mottos. The vast procession having been duly :mar shalled betwixt ten and eleven a.m., proceeded to West Derby, and thence to Old Swan and Stanley, where they broke up about four 'p.m., and each member tools off every emblem they wore preparatory to entering the borough. The superintendent of the county police and about thirty officers were in attendance, and gave most valuable assistance in clearing the Way, and maintaining nubroken the vast proces sion. The whole propeeding was characterised by the utmost order and decorum, which was greatly owing to the vigilance and good feeling of the police, added to the good sense and propriety of the processionists. The whole line was densely crowded, and at many points of the route the inhabitants turned out to greet the lodges with hearty cheers. From the open windows of many of the private residences on the route was to be seen the waving of hats, handkerchiefs, &c., in token of welcome and encouragement. Whatever opinion may be enter tained as to the propriety of the denionstration, there can be but one feeling of gratification that nothing occurred tQ dieturb the ueace or mar the pleasure feati of the day, To many it was high val—all the more enjoyable that it was associated with the maintenance of highly loyal and liberal Conservative principles. Our space will not per mit us even to specify all the festivities of the evening. The grandest affair came off at the Teutonic-hall, where nearly 200 sat down to dinner ; and in the evening a ball was held, attended by about 600 ladies and gentlemen. The scene -nt the ball was one of un usual splendour—the gentlemen being decorated with their sashes, &c„ and the ladies' dresses ornamented With orange ribbons and trimmings of the most tasteful devices. We may mention that the silver iusigna of the order borne in the procession is valued at about a hundred n. , (1 was presented to it, we belieye, by a 4oyal Duke. Lodges 10 and 17, amalgamated under the name of the Iron Duke, assembled in the evening at Chalk's Star and Garter ; Lodges 14 and 20 were at Holt's; about 200 of the 23rd were at Greenwood's ; 35, or John Knox's, were at May's, where about 100 joined in the dance. Dinners, tea parties, 4141 suppers in connection with the various lodges were held in various places throughout the town, all of which were well attended. The various places of assembly were splendidly decorated throughout the day, and generally the town presented a holiday aspect.

MERSEY DOCKS AND HARBOUR BOARD. At the weekly meeting of the Mersey Docks and Harbour Board, held yesterday, Mr. Charles Turner presided. The members present were Messrs. Hubback, Boult, Farnworth, Rankin, Littledale, Lockett, Roun thwaite, Evans, Derbyshire, Langton, Mondell, Forwood, and Seger. WORKS COMMITTEE. From the proceedings of this committee it appeared that a letter had been road from the Steam-ship Owners' Association, urging the necessity of hastening the com pletion of the new steam docks at the north end, and that the committee has replied that the works were being completed as rapidly as possible. A communi cation had been received, and referred to the engineer, from the coal proprietors of North Wales, respecting the arrangements for the shipment of coal at Birkenhead. The proceedings were confirmed. WAREHOUSE COMMITTEE. • A minute of this committee recorded the opinion that the present rent-charge of t of a penny per ton for storage of guano in the Birkenhead Warehouses should be continued, and Mr. BOULT objected to the amount, as being much too small, and considerably lower than was charged for the same article on the quays of the Victoria Duck. He did think that as tkat was the only board in the North of England capable of satisfying the requirements of the Peruvian Government, they were in a position to require a fair rent, and he begged to propose that the rate be Id. per ton per week. Mr. Lockett seconded the amendment, which, how ever, was lost by a large majority ; Mr. Hubback .2xplaining that as matters at Birkenhead were iu a transitory state, and as the people who stored goods there were put to a great inconvenience, the amount named was considered quite ample. MARINE COMMITTEE. The board confirmed the proceedings of this com mittee, including a resolution not to comply witk the request of Mr. Chapman, lessee of the Lauding-stage Refreshment-rooms, fur permission to apply for a license to retail wines and spirits. A letter was read from the Ferry Committee of the Birkenhead Commissioners, objecting to the application, on the ground that it would offer temptations tc the crews of the ferry-boats. DOCKS AND QUAYS COMMITTEE. The proceedings of this committee included a recom mendation to transfer Mr. Henrichseu from the Hus kisson to the Brunswick Dock, at a reduced salary ; and to appoint Mr. Edward Carey, pier -master, to the office of dock-master of the Canada Dock. Mr. LOCKETT, in moving the confirmation of the proceedings, explained that Mr. Henrichseu had been removed from the Huskisson Dock, and stationed at the Brunswick Dock at a reduced salary, on account of his having been absent from his duty. He had attended before the committee, and had explained that he was with some friends at the time and was persuaded to remain. The committee, however, could not overlook the offence, as he had gone away without the permis sion of the harbour master. Mr. RANKIN thought the Docks and Quays Committee had not quite apprehended the instructions given to them at the last meeting with respect to the appoint ment of a master for the Canada Dock. They were not asked to consider the question of salary, but to appoint the best man they could possibly obtain. He felt very much dissatisfied with the arrangement which bad been entered into both with regard to the Canada and Hus kisson Docks. Mr. FORWOOD asked if Mr. Rankin would state any particular reason why he was dissatisfied with Mr. Carer? Whether he received £lOO or £2OO, it did not follow that he was not exactly the man suited. —With regard to Mr. Heurichsen, the committee said there had been some circumstances aris ing out of the management of steamers frequenting that dock, but thought Mr. Henriehsen might not be competent to manage vessels entering the Huskisson Dock. The committee thought he might be fully competent to manage vessels entering the Brunswick Dock. Mr. DAREYSUIRE believed it was quite understood that there should be a •very efficient person placed at the Canada Dock. They wanted a person who knew not only how to manage ships, but one who would be able to conduct himself in such a way as to be agreeable to parties who called upon him. He did not like the manner in which Mr. Henrichsen had been dealt with, and thought the committee were bound to state publicly what the reasons were for the course which they had taken. He did not think they should disrate a man, and not give a just cause for it. Mr. Bouvr said the committee had no reason to suppose that Mr. llenrichsen had ga into improper company, but he had been absent from duty, and all knew that a dockmastcr's absence might be the cause of serious accidents. They had given a sufficient reason for what they had done, though of course previous circumstances on all such occasions were taken into consideration. He was not aware that any fault had been found with Mr. Henriebsen's efficti.nlay. Thcre had been charges of irregularity brought against him, which had no doubt lea an impression on the minds of the committee, and influenced them in the decision they came to. Mr. FARNWORTH also expressed dissatisfaction with the arrangements. They did not want a gentlemanly man, but a practical man, to fill the position of dock master of the Canada dock. From the appointment made last week it appeared to him that not the slightest attention had been paid by the Docks and Quays Com mittee to the memorial received by them ; and although it was referred back for further consideration, a pier master had been appointed ; and the chairman should have stated whether Mr. Carey was the very best man that-could have been appointed. As to the removal of Mr. Henrielisen, if that gentleman was not fit for the Huskisson dock, he certainly was not fit for the very re sponsible position of dock master of the Brunswick dock. It was the most difficult dock in the estate to manage, and yet they appointed a 'mart in whom they had no confidence. The CHNIRMAN assured Mr. Faruworth that Abetter the committee had acted rightly or wrorgly, or from want of judgment, they considered the matter very fully. As regarded the removal of Mr. Henrichsen, they con sidered that te had been gailty of a dereliction of duty which they could not overlook, seeing the position which he held. He might assign other reasons why other Wen, whose qualifications had been discussed, were not appointed to the Canada dock ; brit he thought it better not to do so. He hoped, at all events, that the appoint ments would be allo.wo to remain, so as to have a fair Mr. kN , A.NS said ho was at a loss to know in what the timber trade had not been gratified by that board, for they had been dictating there for a very long period. It would be very easy to narrate the ihelef a a4able encroachments of the timber trade upon tlke tiaauces of the port of Liverpool. They entered into a contract to go to the north end, hAt they were holding the south still. Not one word was said then about water accom "tuodation, yet they had applied to the board to make them two docks, which formed part of the contract. Mr. Lociurr, in reply, said that Mr. Carey had had great experience in the management of the docks, although he had only held the appoi4m,ent of pier master. As to Mr. Ilenrichsen, there was no doubt of his abilities, for both Mr. M'lver and Mr. Inman had stated that, as far is his abilities were concerned, there wax no question. There had been sonic iittle irregulari ties, which induced the committee to think that they had far better to, remove hin►„ sa that he might have an opportunity of displaying his ability for the future. l3rove l eflitigs. were then confirmed. letter was read from Mr. Newall, manufacturer of submarine telegraphs at Birkenhead, claiming compen sation for loss which he had sustained by reason of a screw steamer which they were loading having been compelled to leave the dock seven days before her time, when the water was taken from the dock, inconsequence of which they had been compelled to, send the cargo to the ship in flats. The letter v,:,as referred to the solicitor with instructions to stat l e, that, though sorry for the inconvenience to, which the writer had been put, they could riot entertain the application. A letter from Mr. Alfred Holt, of Water-street, com. plaining that the arrangements for the admission of s t eamers into the graving-docks were not satisfactory, was referred to, the Docks and Quays Committee. letter was read from eating-house proprietors near the. North Doc cc.l4laining that a person had been allowed to erect r tent on some waste land in that neighli,p,arliood without rent, and to retail tea, coffee, 40. therein, Referred to the Docks and Quays Com mittee. A letter from Messrs. Blundell and Sons, coal pro prietors, approving of the engineer's plans for the shipment of coal, and expressing a hope tha.t the cranes at the North Docks would be maintained for the Lancashire coal trade. The Cuxiirm.tx said the; . c was no intention to alter the system at the North Docks, A letter: fF,ern, Mr. John Place, jun., the subject of which did not transpire, was ordered to lie on the table for the perusal of such members as had the, inclination. THE SOLICITOR'S SALARY,, The Special Committee appointed to con,sider the de sirability of retaining the whole of the services of Mr. North, as solicitor to the board, recommended that Mr. North should be requested to relinquish, his private practice, and that his salary should he increased to £2,000 a-year. Mr. mpved the confirmation, of the proceed-. irrEs, adding, 04 Mr. North was, quoteto give dried to, the rcsolutionof the com,*.keS hlCettrinig fruit private practice. Kr• Evik.W. had never seen the necessity for having 14r. North's services entirely ; but it was quite obvious that it there was an increase of business it was only temporary. When they got the property at Birkenhead arranged, it was out of the question 4 , - ..5; 6uppose that there could be any great business for, a solicitor to do which could interfere with his having private practice. If they gave him £2,000 a year, they gave him also an office and clerks, and he should very much doubt whether he could make anything like that at his private practice. TOXTETH GUARDIANS. At the weekly meeting of this board yesterday, Mr. H. S. Alpass presided ; the other members present were Messrs. John Wilson, Carter, Harrison, Hughes, Jos. Wilson, Wm. Leyland, Grindrod, Baynes, and Miller. The Governor reported the number of paupers in the house last week to be 354 ; admitted, 28 ; born, 1 ; discharged, 26 ; dead, 1 ; this week, 356. A cheque out-door relief for £74 was granted. THE RATES ON THE WORKHOUSE. The CHAIRMAN said he had had an interview with the auditor, who considered it his duty to disallow the payment which the board had made for the rates on the Workhouse. He had also desired him (the Chair man) to state that he did so with no wish to give any annoyance, but to raise an important point of law— whether the Workhouse, situated as it was within the township, and being now distinct, and consequently exempt, from poor-rate, is not also exempt from paying other rates. He (Mr. Rees) sug gested that when they received a communication which they would receive from the Pour-law Board, they might memorialise the board to obtain the opinion of the law officers of the Crown. Should the question not be decided in that way, they could go to the Couit of Queen's Bench. Mr. BAYNES asked how it was with the parish of Liverpool ? The CHAIRMAN replied that the Liverpool Corporation did not ask for rates, because if they did, the Select Vestry would ask them for a large amount of rates on other property, which at present they did not do. It was a sort of compromise. He (the Chairman) would suggest the desirability of putting a notice upon the books, that the clerk give notice to the township to appeal against the present poor and county rates. A notice to that effect was accordingly entered. It was resolved that the guardians visit the lunatics chargeable to the board at the several asylums. This concluded the business. WORKHOUSE COMMITTEE. The usual weekly meeting of the Liverpool Work house Committee was held yesterday in the board-roum, at the parish-othces, Browulow-hill. 'Mr. Churchwarden Cropper occupied the chair, and the other members present were—Messrs. Peck, Whitty, Williams, Denton, Owen, Satchel!, and Smith. Mr. Cair, the governor, reported that there were in the house last week 1,850 ; this week, 1,749 ; corres ponding week last year, 1,693. The number of vagrants accommodated in the sheds during the week was 171 men, 93 women, and 20 children, making a total of 284. The number of patients in the hospital was 59.5 ; admitted since, 141 ; cured and discharged, 293 ; dead, 9 ; remaining under treatment, 488. A communication was read from Messrs. Potter and Turner, the hon. secretaries of the London Committee of Guardians, desiring the committee to write to the members for the borough to oppose the clause sought to be introduced into the Poor-law Continuance Bill, by Lord Edward Howard, requiring creed registers to be kept in the workhouses, open to the inspection of the ratepayers. The CIiAIRMAN stated that a similar register was kept at present in the Liverpool Workhouse. Several members then made remarks on the subject, and on the motion of Mr. Satchell, seconded by Mr. Owen, the clerk was directed to communicate with the borough members. THE EXTINCTION OF FIRE AT THE WORKHOUSE Mr. DENTON inquired whether the committee had received any report ou the subject of fires ? The CHAIRMAN replied that, contrary to his expecta tion, he found that there was no report presented. lie had called on the chairnion of the Fire Prevention Committee, who stated that some arrangements must Row be made with a view of making the Workhouse safe ; and it remained with the committee to say what they were going to do in the matter, if anything. Mr. PECK explained that Mr. Duncan had stated if the hose were carried to the middle window the water could be forced throughout the building. Mr. DENTON remarked that full information should be obtained from the water engineer on the subject in the first place, and then it would be for them to legislate. He understood that by conducting the main pipes to a certain high position in the town they would obtain a sufficient force to throw the water quite over the build ing. The expense, however, would necessarily be great ; and he thought they could have nothing better than a large tank. Mr. OWEN considered that the only remedy for the defect would be for them to get a good fire-engine of their own, with an efficient body of men to work it. Mr. Wirtrry enquired whose duty it was to bring a sufficient force to bear on the house—theirs 01 the Water Committee's ? The CHAIRMAN" replied that the Water Committee undertook only to bring such pressure t. hear as the pipes would uliow. Mr. DENTON remarked that the recent experiments were complete failures; and he thought it would be as well to carry buckets to the top of the house as the hose. Mr. PECK suggested that the fire-offices should be communicated with on the subject. lie had scarcely any doubt that they would be met in a liberal spirit, and that an engine would be supplied to them by one of the offices, if they found a shed to keep it in ; the whole of the neighbourhood would be benefited by having a fire-engine at a convenient distance in case of fire. The expense, however, would be great. Mr. DENTON Never mind expense; let us have safety. _ . After some further conversation the following gentle men were appointed a committee to make preliminary arrangements—Messrs. Cropper, Peck, Denton, U weA, and Satehell. There wag ilia other husinass of any inaportanee, THE HEALTH CONDUTTEE. The weekly meeting of the Health Committee was held at the Town-ball, yesterday. Mr. Beckwith pre sided, and among the gentlemen present were Messrs. Crellin, Haydock, Nickson, Barton, Crosthwaite, Bow ring, Steel, Job, and Holden. The Borough Engineer, Building Surveyor, an d In spector of Nuisances reported various particulars of the operations in their several departments during the week, from which it appeared that 156 nuisances complained of by inhabitants had been inspected and means taken to remedy them, 1,475 houses in the unhealthiest dis tricts, containing 4,610 apartments, and 814 cellars had been put under examination with a view of improving their sanitary condition. The medical officer of health reported that during the first week of July the mortality of Liverpool was lower than any week, with one exception, since the Sanatory Act came into operation. The deaths in the parish were 101, and in the out-townships 62,—total, 163, being 46 less than the corrected average of the preceding ten years. qf 33 deaths from ;yinotie dis eases, one-third was from diarrhma, which always begins to increase in prevalence at this season, chiefly among infants. The average lumber in the same week of fornier years was 15. Measles caused 9 deaths, typhus only 3, hooping-cough 3, dysentery 3, scarlatina 2, croup 2. From disease of the lungs the deaths were 56, more than one-half of which being from consumption, A man aged 35 died from excessive drinking. During the quarter ending June 10th the deaths registered in Liverpool (including 183 sudden and violent deaths, death. in luvinitnis not included in caPairlr ropnrto were 2,821, being 410, less than the corrected fA y va:R p of the preceding ten years. From urge* diseases the deaths were 412, a lower mortality than any preceding quarter, and 3,18 below the average. The only disease of this class note than usually prevalent during the quarter was measles, which caused 133 deaths, against 26 in the corresponding quarter of last year, Typh us was fatal in 88 cases, against 149; diarrhoea 37, against 63 ; hooping-cough 22, against 128 ; scarlatina 17, against 63 ; croup caused 28 deaths, syphilis 19, diph theria 18, scurvy 3, carbuncle 3, smallpox 2. From diseases of the lungs 997 deaths were recorded, incliOing 467 from consumption. The mortality wr l a about 100 more than the average, which ry l iglt be ascribed, to the low temperature pre7alent during the months of April and Tune. Mr. Bownurck thought the attention of the press should be called to the report, which Nvas, he thought, a very important one. The mortality of the past three months was only twenty-four in the thousand, which was exceedingly below the average of this pmt of the country. Liverpool had been very moch maligned, but this report, he thought, would silence the objections which had been made. Mr. NICKSQN called attention to the fact that the past quarter was the most favourable for these returns. Dr. DUNCAN was understood to say that the mortality was much less than the same quarter of last year. The LAN-CLERK read the report of the Lodging-house Committee, from which It appeared that the new system was working satisfactorily. Mr. BEcKwrrit said Mr. Earle, and &era' others, were constantly brinsirg charges against the system, and that perhaps the report read would be a sufficient answer. A letter was read from the servants in the employ of the Corporation, again bringing befelg notice of the committee a previous let ter, asking if there would be any objection to the employees joining a corps of sappers and miners now in course of formation in Liverpool ; During the discussion which ensued it was explained, that the, proposedcorps was to be entirely ll self-su,pportipg, that the men iCir4,il4g were in no wax to sacrifice the, interest% of the 6rporation, and on this anderstandirig, the corn, mittec thought, there could be no objection otAered the recuet:i t waq reolv.ed, after some discussion, to appropriate twelve water carts and horses for the use of the volun teers on Saturday, to water the ground and approaches to it, and afterwards to carry water to the review ground for the benefit of the thirsty. This concluded the business, . . Analloolowarion There was another question which they had to con sider. Were they to take him now for better or for worse, in sickness and in health, in vigour or in old age. Now, if he became incompetent, there was no difficulty in getting rid of the expense ; but at a future time it would be held out that they deprived him of kis practice; and if he was living to a 100 years he must have the £2,000. He did not think the board was warranted in doing this. He knew not of any kind of service which could not have been rendered them by any competent solicitor in the town. He should, there fore, propose to leave matters as they were, and not to put that board under the obligation of paying £2,000 for the entire life of a man who, in all likelihood, long before he expired would be entirely inefficient. Mr. BaocKLEBANK, to a certain extent, participated in the views expressed by Mr. Evans. He was not, however, going to oppose the recommendation, for he thought it might be desirable to have the services of Mr. North entirely for the board; but he did feel that they would not have been placed in the position of being asked to enlarge Mr. North's salary to £2,000, but for the difficulty which had arisen between Mr. North and his partner. Mr. FORWOOD thought the question was, were the services of Mr. North such that they could afford to lose them. He believed that rather than lose his ser vices, or any chance of losing them, they would give him £2,000. Even after the Birkenhead works were completed he thought there would be sufficient work for the solicitor, for, looking at the niggardly way in which the requisite funds had been given to them, they would no doubt frequently have to go to Parliament. Mr. EVANS said there were 700 solicitors in the town, and God help them if they could not get one among . them who could draw up au Act of Parliament. The CHAtaItAN said the solicitor hail h, , T 1 allowed to engage in private practice, and it th e b o ard desired him to give that up he was certainly entitled to some remu neration. Mr. EVAN.—Whe asks him to relinquish it ? There is the whole of Liverpool before him, but he goes to betray the interests of the dock estate in the person of his partner. Mr. SHAND believed their solicitor had been placed in a very awkward position with regard to his partner. It was originally intended that the solicitor of that board should not be engaged in private practice at all, and, under all the circumstances, he thought the committee had been quite right in coming to the conclusion they had done. Mr. BOULT, referring to the statement of Mr. Evans that Mr. North had betrayed the interest of that estate, denied its truth, and said that on the contrary he had always discharged his duty thoroughly and con scientiously. With respect to the amount of remunera tion, he thought, looking at the enormous extent of the estate, at the number of transactions, and the number of people they were brought into collision with, that it was necessary to have the solicitor's whole services. Mr. RANKIN, in reply, said that after the opinions previously expressed at that board, the committee felt that they could not do otherwise than make the recom mendation. Mr. EVANS pressed for a division on the question, but was the only one who voted against the confirmation of the recommendation of the committee. This concluded the public busiuess. FIRE ON BOARD A SHIP IN THE HUSKISSON DOCK. While a large number of men were engaged in the hold of the ship Marquette yesterday, discharging a cargo of New Orleans cotton, they were almost instanta neously surrounded with smoke ; and, although they made the best of their. way to the deck, some of them were half suffocated, and had to be hoisted up. Alarmed at the sudden outbreak, and the threatening aspect of the fire, the parties on board the vessel seemed too much astonished to take any measures to subdue the flames, but information was despatched to the' various fire stations, and at the earliest possible moment Mr. Hewitt, with the engines, reels, and brigade from the Central Station, the reels and brigades from Sandon Dock and Collingwood Dock, were upon the spot.. The firemen descended fearlessly into the hold, Mr. Hewitt being the foremost, and were most active in their endeavours to subdue the fire. After continuing their efforts for some time, they had the satisfaction of seeing them successful. and shortly afterwards the discharge of cargo was proceeded with, the firemen playing upon the cotton as it was thrown from the ship. One of the firemen fell from the main hold into the lower hold, but, almost miraculously, escaped with but little injury. In this instance the firemen almost surpassed themselves in their efforts to overcome the destructive element, and, as to their exertions may be attributed the prevention of a very serious conflagration and immense loss of property, they deserve on this occasion more than usual praise. It may be stated that the ship was uninjured. She recently arrived from New Orleans, and is consigned to Messrs. T. and J. Harrison. We have been unable to ascertain whether the insurance has expired, as is usual I on the arrival of a vessel in the dock. LIVERPOOL POLICE COURT.-YESTERDAY. (Before Mr. RAULEs-) AN (MANGE LILY. A young woman named Margaret Mercer was charged under the following circumstances appeared that about three o'clock on \Yet:lmlay a young woman was in Lime-street, having an orange lily in her hand, which the prisoner, for what reason did not appear, considered obnoxious, and she Made an attack on the bearer of the yellow flower. A young man went to the assistance of the girl, but the prisoner was more than a match for the two, and they were obliged to take refuge in the public-house of Mr: Capel, Lime-street, where the prisoner followed them and threw a stone, which hit Mr. Capel in the eye, and also broke a square of glass. The prisoner made some sort of a rambling stateMent, not to the purpose. She was fined El and costs, or a month's imprisonment. ROBBERY FROM A SHIP. Peter Car-telmg, the steward of the Ismyr, in the Prince's dock, 3 P ,, i Joule Gooding, his wife, werecharged by Captain Summers of that vessel for having stolen two sextants, two coats, an opera glass, spectacles, and other property, value £2i. The male prisoner was the steward of the ship, and the captain left him the keys of the cabin and charge of all the property. Some time ago, he began to, loge little things, but dal not suspect the prisoner. However, on Wednesday he missed the things above stated, and, as he heard that the female (who looked reapect able4, was in, the habit of going to the ship with, the man's meals, he got a policeman, and searched the house of the pri soners, at 7 Court, Heath-street, where they found some of the spectacles and other things that had been stolen. At first the woman said she took theist to try a pair, and to ask the captain for them afterwards. Subsequently the man said he took theta from the ship. The valuable portion of the property \visa not found, and the prisonera were remanded, in order to have search made fok tb,e property. THE VALUE OF CIIARACTRIt. Harvey, a carter, who lives in Vauxhall-road, was charged with having 150 lbs. of copper bolts in his possession, for which he could not account. Mr. Cobb defended, and said his client got a pint of beer from, two men to cart, the bolts, arid then they went away, whehhe took the property home, and that was the only way he could account for their possession: Mr.' Cobb then called two witnesses .to give the prisoner a good character, and one of them said his name was Denis Tracey. He said the prisoner was a very honest man, and he never knew him to be guilty of anything except what all other carters were guilty of. Mr. Raffles, enquired what that was, and the witness replied : Only stealing a few bale ropes to get a pint of beer. (Loudlau.ghter.) Mr. Raffles: Well, Mr. Cobb, what do you say to that Mr. Cobb: Oh, your worship, I did not ask him that. Witness : Why, nine-tenths of the carters of Liverpool do it, and it's not considered any harm. The tgii : nes* was asked where he lived, and he said, "I live nu place ; I roost on a stick." The prisoner was fined £2, wbach one of his friends paid for him. TAKING PLEDGES. Mary Guy, alias Roche, of Limekiln-lane, was summoned at the snit of an officer of Inland Revenue,, for taking pledges as a pawnbroker, without license, Mr. '2,amdall appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Cobb for the defence. It appeared that some time ago a woman named. Mary Lea'e, who lived in aits.ottiems, and bar isouas .were seized. The defendant agreed. to advance £6 to Leale, and to get the goods in pledge, s i nd was to receive sixpence us the pound a week for the adve,tsee of the money. This was paid for some weeks, and ultimately the complainant went with the whale of the money and demanded, her goods. The defendant was then summoned before the magistrates fox refusing to deliver up the property ; tm order was made for the restoration of the goods, but the defendant still refused to comply with the order, and the present,charge washrought—the penalty for the offence being £5O. Several witnesses were called pro and con, but the magistrate considered the case proved, and fined the defendant in a mitigated penalty of £l2 10s., and costs, or one month'', imprisalanacilta (Before Messrs. TYRER and Hon.:aims.) BAD MEAT. George Gregory, butcher, Trowbridge-street, um% summoned by Inspector Reed, for exhibiting the carouse of a,cow which was not fit for use. Fined 10s. and costs.--.Sams pork butcher, Richmond-row, was tined ss. e. 44 costs for a similar offenoe.—George Smith, of the Abbodoir, Trowbridge-street, was summoned by Inspector Reed, for having the carcase of a beast hung up for sale which was not fit for human food. Mr. M‘Gowan was for the prosecution, and Mr. Cobb for the de fendant. Mr. Reed was examined, and proved that he saw the carcase hanging up, withoutthe head or tail. He tried it by a jury, ar.,l•it was condemned. To Mr. Cobb. he said the meat was sweet, but not fit for human food, because it was un hcaltky, or sickly. Mr. Cobb maden,long address for the de fence, and called Mr. Easthana to disprove the case, but the magistrates thought the cask st4tained, andlued:the del octant 20s. and costs. CONTEST OF BRASS BANDS AT THE . CRYSTAL PALACE. The first contest; on Tuesday afternooni went off with great spirit, and presented features of uncommon inte- • rest. • Froth ten o'clock a.m. no less than forty-four bands : of brass instruments, divided into six compd. , =tits, performed in succession, before appointed judges, on platforms erected in various parts of the building. At three 'o'clock the 4 pembers of these forty-four bands assembled together in the Handel Orcbistra, and played the following selection Rule' Britannia," " Halle lujah," Handel ; "Wedding March," Mendelssohn ; " The , leavens are telling," Haydn ; " God save tbe Queen." .Thp effect of the combined legions of " blowers,' (upwaph of 1,200 strong) was tremendous. The organ, which accompanied them, and which on less exceptional occasions is apt to drownoverythinfz, was. scarcely audi ble in the midst of .the brazen tempest. Nothing less than the never " monste-gong-drum" could prevail against it. The whole performance was conducted with wonderful energy and 'precision by Mr. Enderby Jack son, of Hull. After this colossal display, twelve bands, selected by the judges as the most worthy to contend for the prizes, out of the forty-four who had been heard in the morning (two from each platform), appeared in the Handel Orchestra, and alternately ex hibited their strength. The, prizes were awarded as follows,:—First prize : £4O in. money, with a silver cup for the bandmaster, and a champion contre-bass iu E flat, value guineas, presented by gr.

Fourth prize : £lO in ;honey, to the , Darlington Saxhorn band. - Fifth prize :£5 in money, to the Dewsbury band. The contest was to be resumed next day. The attendance on Wednesday afternoon, at the second and final contest, was far more numerous than at the first', the numbers present being considerably over 22,000. tThe bands selected by the judges as worthiest to con tend for the prizes—again twelve in number-then successively- exhibited their strength in the Handel Orchestra. The first prize—£3o in money, with a sliver cup for the band-master, and a complete-set of Boosey's Brass Band Journal, in sixteen volumes, presented by .the publishers —was awarded to the Cforth& band (conductor, Mr. R.

The Blackdyke:and Saltaire bands, with had won the first and second prizes ou Tuesday , were prohibited from contending on this occasion. Tie extra prizei—an electro-plated cornet-a-piston by Courtois (presented by Messrs. Chappell and Hammond), and an electro-plated euphonion in B flat (presented by Meisri. Boosey for the best solO cornet and basa players),.were consigned to Mr. W. Blandford '(Goldshill band) and Mr. John Walker (Cyfarthfa baud). The prizes .were delivered to ,the successful competitors by Mt. John Bewley, gederal manager of the Crystal. Palace. A great deal of enthusiasm was elicited, and it *as nearly nine o'clock before the proceedings had Dome to au end. For a first experiment'of this kind the fleece* was quite extraordinary. - Mr. J. A. Wise, who hai sat t'or Staprd about tight years, has announced his uttentiOn of resigning his seat. A Cabinet Council was held on Wednesday afternoon at the official residence of the . First Lord of the . . Treasury, in Dawning-street. 'Lord Robert Montague, M.P., has been doing the p'opular by /sending at a large meeting of tbe Loudon Opet atges in. favour of themine hours movement. ,The Mild banquet, under the auspices of the Royal Agricultural Society, was held .the Music Saloon, Canterbury, on Tuesdair,evening, Lord Walsiugharu, President of the Royal Society, in the chair. The 4th company of the Royal Engineers, which has been 'for several yeaii in India; is now on its passage home, and is daily expected to- arrive at head-quarters, Brompton barracks. • The journals of Bohemia announce the recent dis covery, near the town of Pecka, in that country, of the Wink of an antediluvian tree, twenty-four feet long, and weighingl,s74lbs. It was cut - up into four portions to be conveyed to the Geological Institute at Vienna. It appears that during the terrific gales of tbs. fow months that have passed of ale present ypar, the life boats in connection .with the Royal National Life-boat Institution have been. instrumental in rescuing one hundred and fifteen of our fellow-creator? from a watery grave. TUE PAPAL Racar rrs.—A Vienna letter says*:— " Many of the men who volunteered for the Papal army have returned to this - city ffoth the Pontifical States, becalm the promises made to them have not been ful filled. One ease of complaint is, that notwithstanding their having enlisted for a particular au, the officers insist on sending them to any corps they please. Some men entered for Are infantry have been incorporated in the artillery, and vice verse," THE PRINCE OF WALES'S VISIT . TO CANADA.— Plymouth, Wednesday Morning.—The screw steam sloop Greyhound, 17, Commander Francis W. Sullivan, one of the Chaungisquadren, in attendance on the Prince of Wales when he sailed hence on Wednesday morning, returned to the Sound last night. She reports that, when last seen. from near the Land's End, the squadron was in two lines.; the Hero was the van-ship, and was under steam, steering west.' ; . - T r A MOTHER AND. CRILD . BURNED TO DEATI—;AIL inquest was held on Monday last at Blackburn, before John Hargreaves. Esq., on the bodies of Ellen Mago nagle, the wife of a tinman, and• her infant daughter, who were burned to. death. It appeared .that from. Thursday to Saturday of the previous week the wretched woman and her husband had been pursuing a course of dissipation, as was their usual practice when they had • money. On the morning of the latter day they entered their miserable dwelling iu a state of intoxication, when the man seems at once to have fallen asleep, from which he was aroused by the shrieks of his wife and the screams of the child, both. being in flames. •As soon as aid could be procured they were removed to the workhouse, where they lingered iu agony till Monday,- and expired. The jury returned, a verdict of accidental/death in both cases. ... SUICIDE OF Allt JAMES WEiTON.—On -Wednesday, Mr. Walley, the coroner for West Middlesex, held a long inquiry at the private residence of James Weston, Esq., government contractor, manufacturer. of Roman and Portland cement and English and -French plaster, carrying on oue of the largest trades.in London, at Mil wall, Poplar, and St. Andrew's . Wharf, Blackfriars. Some time ago, a clerk named Hookey was given in charge by him for embezzling from him something like L'Bo. He was remanded, but died before being committed for .trial. This seems to have preyed upon the•mind of . Mr. Weston. On 'Saturday morning the housekeeper, "upon going into his bedroom, found him in bed in a dying state. A surgeon was sent for, uud he promptly "attended, but the unfortunate gentleman expired in spite of all that vitta done, including the application of the galvanic battery, in less than half an hour after the arrival of the surgeon. The : pot modem examination showed that he had taken a mixture of prussic aeid and ammonia, which had caused death. The jury returned a verdict accordingly. ANECDOTE OF GARII3.U.DI.—III the " Memoirs de Garibaldi," written by Alexander Duma.4, and for some time. past in course of publication in the Siicle, Garibaldi relates that so far back as 1833; when mate of a ship which was then at Marseilles, he saved from drowning a schoolboy, named Rambaud, who, whilst playing- in a barge in the port, had accidentally fallen into the water, and that he had to plunge three times before he rescued the lad. "As I had just before been condemned to death," said Garibaldi, " I had assumed the name of Pane, and it is probable that the person I saved never knew my real name." The Siècle now Publishes a let ter, signed " J. Ramband, 9, Rue de l'Ecluse, at the Batignolles," in which the writer says that it was he who was saved in 1833., and that it is " with great emo tion and joy that he had learned the real name of him to whom he owed his life." - Youziu 'MAIDENS AND MUBIC.—I compare a young maiden very often with the various pieces of composition in "music." There are maidens - as clasiical and sterling in their nature as a symphony by Beethoven ; touching our hearts with sounds grand and celestial, like thine which pervade the Great Universe. There are others, who resemble an oratorio by Haydn. There is too much sassetity in their nature, and the world with its rotity finds no room in their imagined height. Thee are others like the songs, without wor d s , by .21fetutassolm.
