It is understood here, that view which the King of the Belgians over here to impress upon the British need not, perhaps, say, that such a ver agreeable to those who are for any price, will not be popular in this It places England and France in the of " bottle-holders," and renders the capable of indefinite duration, when, by Ise of firmness, backed by the material of success, they might decide the ques tat once.

ON THE BODY, AND VERDICT OF WILFUL MURDER. an inquest was held before Mr. P. F.

' to the inquest being held, the deposition of - other man who had been stabbed by Montero, Was said to be dying, was taken before Mr. J.

The evidence taken was precisely to that which we published at length in the t -Daily Times of yesterday, so that it is unnecessary it. It was distinctly proved that Montero stabbed and his companion, and that he received no on whatever, although a:dispute had arisen between and Williams. At the conclusion of the evidence ease, the coroner then read the following deposition, had been taken to-day in th e presence of J.

If they were of opinion it was not Ity%lirder, then they were to say whether both /ero 1 f )f O t Manslaughter, or one of them, and in the event of i l ,,,,,them, which. and how far the other might be `.`t, in it, not as an acecessory before the fact, but b a lder and abettor. There was no question about the (I I i t he death ; it was the result of a stab, and there was 1440 t that a stab had been given by a man on the night dabhad on and it would be for the jury to say whether tit v ' been given by Montero, or whether he could !oi' i ,, O r cut it down below murder, and how far the other tt I' l l ' was involved in it. He now left the matter in h_ ands, and he was glad that he had so intelligent a k IC of the jury. The jury then consulted together, e r Some time, :'Poreman said, so far as one of the parties, the jurors le v k e up their minds ; but in referance to Williams, D . :6 1 them want to know the state of the law respecting 1 - • 1. he had taken in the transaction.

He presumed the only question they had to V t Was, how the murder was brought about. Coroner : How far the murder was brought about, lie ow far he was a party to it. a roreman : The feeling was, that he was no other Party, than having been connected with it in the sense kF e e) but it did not appear he was connected with the 1 1 , 1 . That was the view entertained by a large majority PUT. t v e ; Coroner remarked, there must be twelve in favour of Ple t w. Their duty would be to say whether the verdict be against both or either, and in the event of one, q (4 them. Then in the event of it being murder, and t i t hey did not consider the other party guilty in the O c, ree, was not so in the second degree. e i Jury then again consulted, and after a short time re a verdict of wilful murder a g ainst Emanual Montero, irk 4. the prisoner Williams. It was understood that o oir the jurors dissented from this verdict. It being liv \ to have Montero committed to Kirkdale, (aftei eight ) he was ordered to be kept in Bridewell for the night.

TUESDAY EVENING. The repeated announcements of the arrival of bullion which we are called on to make, are scarcely lessurgent or important than the ,satis factory intelligence we receive from abroad respect ing the supplies of corn. From France, we learn that the government has very considerately granted provisions to the proprietors of pigs to feed their stocks gratis, on the acorns •of the royal forests. ThiS measure will very materially economise the grain and potato supplies. From Paris, we find that while the price of bread has been rising there, a fall has taken place in the Gers and Tarn-et- Garonne, the Basses Pyrenees, and the other neighbouring departments. At Miranda the fall has been 3fr. the hectolitre. And what is still more satisfactory, it is now admitted that the quality of the wheat this year is superior to that of the preceeding year, giving from 15 to 20 per cent. more in bread. By the lalest advices from Ancona it appears that the yield of wheat has been this year, in that province one-third less than in 1852, namely, 86,601 measures (rubbia), in place of 134,192. But no corn whatever has been alloWed to leave the province during the present year, a large quantity of foreign grain has been imported into it already. From Madrid we learn that the price of Wheat had fallen. from •50 to 40 and 45 real per fanega. From the Bannat the latest news states, that this year the harvest is more than sufficient for the wants of Austria, and that a great quantity of corn can be exported. In Hungary prices are falling. While the price of bread at Brussels for the next week is fixed at 49c the two-pound loaf first quality. This is the substance of the European intelligence which will be conveyed to America from these several points by the next' mail, and the influence it must have on prices must be clearly foreseen ; while it ought to serve as'a guide to our own markets. We still recommend caution. We yesterday gave a return of "the Cotton on sea, from the United States to Liverpool," and we have now to report the quantity of gold on sea from Aus tralia to this country as follows : Ounces. From Sydney— Surge 6,320 Do. American Lass 6OO Melbourne Marlborough 69,267 E 50,911 Do. ...ssex oo,t. Do. Port Wallace lO,lOB " Geelong Royal George... 16,395 • Total 153,601 These arrivals will amount to about 614,4001., to 'which:We shall. have to add the specie which will be brought by the Cleopatra and Argo steamers, which are hourly expected to arrive. The specie brought by the Charlotte Jane , is ascertained to be worth 155,2881., which makes the aggregate amount received from Australia within the last two days, 411,2881., which does not include the amount brought by the Portland Bay, which has not yet been reported. • The London Stock. Market improved consider ably when it became known that the arrivals of bullion had been so large. The business done, however, was of a speculative character. Consols for money and time were done at 91,-1 to 911. New 34 per Cents., 921 92k; Reduced, 904 904 ; Bank Stock, 212; India Stock, 2454 249; India Bonds,' 2s. dis. ; Exchequer Bills par to - 4s. prem. There was little done in Foreign Stocks, with the exception of Mexicans, which rose 1 per cent., owing to the receipt of a telegraphic message, by way of New Orleans and < Boston, that the Mexican Government had arranged for the immediate payment of one dividend, and a remittance of 50,000/. had been sent forward for that purpose by the English packet to Col. Facio. The Three per Cents. improved to .248 244 ; ditto Account, 244; Russian Bonds Five 'per Cents., 114 ; -ditto Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 964; ditto Small, 964 971 ; Dutch Exchange Two-and-a-Half per Cent, 62 628. _ Railway Shares have generally improved.

South East erns 574. French Railway Shares have also im proved. Mining Shares were also better. Banks, &c. show an improvement. Australian Companies steady, little doing. The Liverpool Cotton Market was not so brisk to-day, as it was yesterday, but prices were well sustained. The sales amount to 5,000 bales, of which 500 were taken for export. Our Share Market showed some slight indication of revival but the business done was of a specula tive and limited kind. We again repeat that a bet ter state of things may be anticipated, and that speedily.

She will be about 2,500 tons measurement, with a length over all of about 350 feet, and when this vessel is completed and on the station there will be a departure once every fortnight, instead of once every four weeks as al p resent, THE NORTHERN DAILY TIMES. TURKEY AND RUSSIA. A letter from. Constantinople of the 16th states; that the news received in that capital on the 6th instant by the French steamer, ,Solon, is of the highest importance. The Solon brought orders to all the large British and French steam-boats at Constantinople to proceed immediately to Besika Bay, and also brought despatches from M. de la Cour and Lord Redcliffe, authorising them to place the two fleets at the orders of the Ottoman Govern nient wheneVer it should ask for their aid officially. A cabinet Council was held the same 'day, and a demand for the assistance of the fleets was made separately to each of the Ambassadors. The Ma gellan was dispatched on the 7th with the fa-man permitting the fleats to pass the Dardanelles. The fleets were consequently expected to arrive at Con stantinople from day to day. A private telegraphio despatch received in ,Parisi, gives news from the Turkish frontiers to the 17th instant. It says At that date no act of hos tility had taken place, The Russian and Turkish Generals were concentrating their troops, and Omar Pasha appeared to be preparing to cross the Danube." Advices from St. Petersburg state that the news of the Turkish declaration of war . has • made an " alarming impression." In St. Peteisburg, the army and the civil service are for war, but the news from the South show that public feeling in theSe provinces is far from enthusiastic in the cause of Russia against Turkey. THE OVERLAND MAIL TRIATE, Oct. 24.—The steamer Bombay arrived at eleven o'clock a.m., in 120 hours from Alexan dria. The Indian mail had arrived at Alexandria with dates from Calcutta,. Sept, 20 ; Bombay, Sept. 28 ; Hong Kong, Sept. 9 ; Sydney, July 28 ; Adelaide, August 8. Our Burmese acquisitions aro in a state of war, being overrun by large bodies of armed men, said: to exceed 14,000, who occupy fortified positions, whence they attack our posts with occasional sue cess. They are said to be instigated by the King of Ava Resumption of hostilities is considered inevitable. Colonel Mackison has been assassinated by an Affghan at Peshawur. Captain Parker and Ensign Bosworth have been killed in an affair with Arabs in the Nizam country. Trade in Calcutta was good. Exchange on London, 2 . 1. , The revolution in China still continues. At Amoy the Imperialists have had some success, but the patriot army has invested Kai Tung Fu, the capital of Honan, on the Yellow River. The whole country is in a state of anarchy, and trade at a stand. At Hong Kong, Spanish dollars 6s. 6d. The Constitutional Committee of the Legislative Council of New South Wales has recommended the establishment of the Upper Chamber, on the nominee system, and negatived the proposal to make it executive. Large quantities of gold con tinue to be found. Abbas Pacha limits the exportation of grain from Egypt to 250,000 quarters. THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE AND MAURITIUS. --- The CalcUtti;;rived .- at Plymouth yesterday morning, bringing advices from Calcutta to August 15th; Madras, Aug. 20th; Ceylon, 24th; Mauritius, Sept. sth ; Cape of Good Hope, 23d ; St. Helena, 30th ; Ascension, October 4th ; and St. Vincent, 12th. She brings a general cargo, and a large number of passengers, among whom are, from the Cape of Good Hope, Major-General Yorke, Captain Smith, Aide-de-Camp, and Major Holdsworth. The summary of the Cape Commercial AdvertisCi• says that the aspeCt Of affairs beyond the colonial border is unsatisfactory. The withdrawal of troops and the abandonment of the Orange River Sove reignty has excited dissatisfaCtion. .Macomo wants possession of the Amatola ,Mountains, but has been refused by General Cathcart. A 'communication has been opened between the Great Lake and the vicinity of Walfisch Bay. A party of Basutos and others performed the journey in 15 days through the desert into the tine tract of country on the river Nosono, which lies east north east of Walfisch Bay. Bayns Kloof, one of the finest mountain passes in the colony, was opened on the 12th September by Mr. Bocherd, Chairman' of the Central Road Board, in !the absence of the Lieutenant Governor, prevented from attending by sickness.—Second edition of The Times. We further learn that the search for coal had failed Many horned cattle had died from a disease said to be imported from Holland. A new road has been opened between Cape Town and the rich corn-growing district of Worcester; the Lieu tenant Governor has been ill, and unable to attend the recent meetings of the Council. A brilliant comet was observed at the Cape on the 12th September, with a tail about six degrees long. The Bosphorus left for India on Aug. 22. The Sydney left for Australia on the 19th. Four ves sels of the American surveying squadron had been at the Cape. The Hydaspes had broken her screw on her outward voyage. In Simon's Bay were her Majesty's ships Mman der, Hydra, Nerbudda, and Comus ; the Dutch steamer Hekla, and schooner Dolphin, and the United States ships John P. Kennedy, Vincennes, Fenimore Cooper, and Porpoise. The Australian Company's steamer Sydney put into Table Bay, September 14. The ship Jessie Smith was wrecked August 24, in Orange River, four men drowned ; and the Isabella has been driven ashore at Espiegle Bay—cargo saved, ship may be got off. At the Mauritius three cargoes of sugar had been sold to private purchasers. Good yellow from 4.40 to 4.50; middling gray, .4 to. 4.25; low grey and yel- low, 3.65 to 3.84.

ThP latpst accounts from Paris state that there was a rise in the 3 per cents. on Monday, which was attributed to a very paCific article in the Patrie of Sunday evening, and to a rumour that the 'ex pected manifesto or note of the Emperor of Russia had been received, and that . the spirit of it was pacific. According to this rumour, the only-pas sage in the document which can give umbrage to France and England is one in which the resistance of the Porte to the demands of Russia is ascribed to their intervention. The Patrie states that the English and French fleets have passed the Dar danelles, and' cast anchor in the sea of Marmora• The Ex-King Jerome, who was stated to have entirely recovered from his illness, is stain a state which, without being dangerous, renders necessary the greatest precautions. The Bulletin de Paris says that the General coin. manding the division at Chalons sur Marne has been killed by one of his officers in a quarrel.

Salford. Messrs. Sharp and Scott were represented by Mr. Tidswell, Solicitor. The TowN CLERK said this was a prosecution raised under the last act bearing upon: the subject-matter of com plaint, the 7th of Victoria, ch. 33rd, section 132nd. Then the latter part of the 116th section of the Salford Improve ment Act of 1830 bore upon the same questions, those acts had to be read together;' but he preferred to proceed with this case, and he would endeavour to prove that it was a commou nuisance. He also referred the court to one act mentioned in Burns's Justice, vol. 3rd. The trade carried on by the defendants, in Salford, was that of sugar-refiners, and he (the town clerk) begged leave to state, on the part of the gentlemen who instructed him, in the onset that it was with extreme reluctance they found themselves compelled to take proceedings against a firm so highly res pectable, and carrying on a trade 'so highly beneficial as that in which they were engaged. But however respectable the firm, and however much esteemed the . members of the firm might be who carried - on the business where the nuisance complained of existed, the Joint Sanitary Committe felt themselves bound to undertake 'the present prosecution. And that prosecution was entered upon under eficumstances which rendered it impossible not to undertake it. The com mittee had had presented to them three memorials against the nuisance from the sugar-refinery in question, one , signed by sixteen gentlemen living in Victoria-street; the second by eleven gentlemen living in the neighbourhood ; and the third by forty-two persons who are residents of Manchester, living on the other side of the river, and extending as far down as the Palatine Buildings. And he was told that the vapour complained of as coming from the preinises of the defendants extended down past Albert Bridge. The vapour, as he understood the matter, fell on the river, and followed the stream of the river. It was a source of satisfaction to him (the Town-clerk) to be able to say that if he made out his case, the Court might make a conviction which would not necessarily put a stop to the ,trade of the defendants, who might, under proper regulations and alterations,. be en abled to carry on their trade. without causing any injury to the public. Mr. Pickering was the first witness examinined, and he stated that he was the inspector of nuisances for the borough of Salford. He had visited the premises of the defendants, which were situated in Middleton Court, Chapel-street, a short distance from Victoria Bridge. They carried on the business of sugar-refiners. Had examined the premises three )r four times, the last time on Friday, found nothing cal culated to give rise to the effluvia complained of by the inhabitants, except from the kilns for burning charcoal, used for filtering sugar, and afterwards re s used again. He Was informed .that' it was animal charcoal which was burned. Mr. Scott, one of the defendants, informed him that he had a large amount of animal charcoal on the premises. The smell complained of was produced by the process of re .burning, throwing out a steam or -vapour. He thought that there were a, number of apertures or narrow tubes from each kiln. There were six tubes through which the charcoal flowed down, and in its .course passed through the fire and was re-burned.. The charcoal flowed through the fire - on its way, down to, the bottom of the works on somewhat of the same principle as a gas-retort. The tube red hot. Vapour comes, and it was not carried up by any chimney. Witness's attention was first called to this =- same on the 23d of last month. He then went over the works with Mr. Scott, but the smell upon Victoria Bridge was much stronger than that in the • works. Bat the smell on Victoria Bridge was, he had no doubt, precisely the same as that at the works, though the former was stronger. The smell was of a sickly kind. WILLIAM HIGGEgBOTTOM. stated that he was an inspector of nuisances. He had smelt a disagreeable effluvia in Vic toria Bridge, which, he was sure, came from the sugar works of. the defendants. The smell at the works and on Victoria Bridge was of the same descriptian. Mr. PICKERING, being recalled, stated that he took-a portion of the charcoal from the works of the defendants, with the consent of their foreman, which he handed to Dr. Smith, the chemist. Dr. Robert Angus Smith was the next witness. He stated that he was a chemist, and that he was sent up by the Manchester committee, as part of their deputation on chemical matters to the Royal Exhibition. He had been extensively employed in reference to sanitary purposes in connection with the Board of Health, both before and since it was established. Mr. Pickering handed him a sample of charcoal on Friday evening, which he analyzed. The substance which was brought to him by Mr. Pickerin,g was animal charcoal, or, in other words, bones that had been burnt without access of air. It is used for taking the colour from various iiquias. substance brought to him by Mr. Pickering, he found it was very wet, and contained besides water very little more than sugar itself. It contained 25 per cent of water, when the dried substenco was burnt, without air it lost 5.777 (or sa) per cent of organic matter, which goes off partly in the form of gases, and partly in the form of vapours. Ever 1200 grains gave 100 cubic inches of gases. Carburetted hydrogen carbonic acid, and the slightest amount of sulphu rated hydrogen, not perceived by the senses, were the chief producte of this class. The :iquids were, water, acetic acid, and that mixture of substances called empyreumatic oil. These last were the chief substances to be complained of. and although they might be considered as disinfectants, and therefore, in some conditions, preservatives of disease they were unquestionably nuisances when diffused even to a small extent in the atmosphere. When vapours produced violent coughing, and irritated the eyes, nose, and month, and even when diluted to an enormous extent pro duced coughing, especially in persons somewhat disposed to it, he knew from experience that they might produce irri tation even at a considerable distance from their source, and as he had also observed the effects on others, he had no hesitation in giving his opinion. He had less hesitation also from this reason, that he had seen the remedy effectually and easily applied in another work of the same description, which was once complained of, so that he believed the manu facturers would not be injuried by the decision that the vapours were a nuisance. He went for the purpose of ascertaining whether the nuisance complained of could be distinguished at the distance* mentioned in the evidence, and he found that even at the distance of Victoria Bridge, the nuisance was so great as to irritate the nose considerably'. By the Bench—lt had not the same effect as snuff. It produces violent coughing, and a very little of it would do so. If the substance were burned with the access Of air it would have no injurious effect whatever upon the throat—By the Town Clerk.--It was a disagreeable smell that .was emitted from the defendants' work ; it was calcu lated to make the residents of the neighbourhood, and passers by, very uncomfortable.—By the Bench. The animal charcoal, or the bones alone, would not give off this offensive smell unless saturated with the repose of the sugar. It was a little of both, the sugar and the bones, that gave off the offensive effivia.-- . -Cross examined.—The smell pro duced irritation of the throat, so as to cause coughing. He last noticed it on - Saturday. Mr. TIES - WELL said, his anxiety was to show that this smell was not offensive or injurious to health (a laugh). Dr. SMITH (in answer, to the bench) said he thought the mere production Of coughino• by . the effluvia was enough to constitute it a nuisance, and make it injurious to health. Amos Burton stated that he lived in Victoria-street, and was a broker there. He experienced a disagreable smell pro ceeding from the works of the defendants. Last Sunday he was so sick in consequence of the suiell,•that he could not go to chapel, and he was sick all Saturday from the same cause. The smell was a nauseous and unpleasant one, like that which proceeded feom an old corpse. Thomas Shelmerdine, - mer chant, Chapel street ; Mr. Borten, Junr., Victoria street; and Thomas Food. residina^ at the ton of Virtnrin Pride, Chester, corroborated the evidence of the previous witnesses. Mrs. Burton of Blackfriars Hotel, Blackfriars street,stated that the smell complained of, had produced injury to herself and family. The smell was very offensive, so much so that it made them sick, and they could not koep food on their stomachs ; the nuisance complained of, had also infured her very much in her business. Mr. TrosWELL said he was instructed to say that his clerks had not received any complaint from the neighbours that the smell from the works was a nuisance. The Towx CLERK, on the' ,other hand, contended that complaints of the smell had been made again' and again. Mr. TRAFFORD said, the case was really undefended. He supposed the object of the committee was to put a stop to the nuisance without insisting upon the infliction of a penalty. Th?Towsi CLERK : That was all, and he was told that Dr. Smith could devise means for putting a stop to the nuisance without ilisconlinning the works. Mr. TRAFFORD : I think I could devise a means too, and that would be the burning of the charcoal elsewhere. Mr. TIDSWELL said the nuisance might be obviated, and the business be carried on where it was at present. There were eleven sugar refineries in Greenock, and many in Glas gow, Liverpool, and Manchester. The Towx CLERK said there were many nuisances exist ing in the places referred to, and Manchester was not so particular as Salford in the removal of nuisances.. In Oxford road he knew there was a very bad smell, though he did not know where it came from. Mr. TRAFFORD said, the magistrates were clearly of opinion that the nuisance complained of had been brought within the act of parliament, as an offensive smell caused by the burning of animal matter. The defendants must forthwith remove the nuisance and pay all the costs and a nominal penalty of £5, with the understanding that unless the nui sance was discontinued the penalty would not be inflicted.

Monday, an action was brought in the Westminster County Court, by Mr. Featherstone, against Sir Benjamin Hall, Bart., M. P., as one of the general committee of the Reform, to recover five and a half year's interest on' a debenture for £5O, issued by the Reform Club. Mr. Hawkins, 'who appeared as council for the defendant objected, as the present application was a " chose in action," and therefore not maintainable at law. The jury concurred in this view, and the plaintiff was nonsuited. The case excited considerable interest, and the result seems clearly to prove that, if the payment of a Reform Club debenture be resisted, • such an instruthent is utterly worthless to the holder.

THE RECORDER OF LONDON ON 'STRIKES AND 00111-RTNATIONS. On Monday last, in his charge to tho Grand Jury, at the Central Criminal Court, the Recorder of London brought the subject of strikes, and com binations amongst workmen, prominently forward. He said : " The next case to which he should direct their attention was one of considerable im portance It was a charge against certain workmen of conspiring together, to prevent another work man from being employed in the same establish ment with them. At the present moment, when so many strikes existed, and the struggle between capital and labour was attracting so much atten tion, cases of this nature became of the greatest possible public importance. It was not for him, sitting in that place, to make any observations with regard to strikes of workmen, but he might be pardoned for expressing his regret at such prO eeedings, when the ruinous loss they entailed, both upon masters and workmen, were considered. He saw that a calculation had been made, that in one limited manufacturing district, wages to the amount of 1:20,000 a week had been lost, thereby occa sioning most serious injury both to masters and workmen, to the tradesmen of the district, to the revenue, and also; no doubt, tending seriously, to derange and disturb the commerce of the country. He could not refrain, therefore, from expressing his regret that some means could not be devised to reconcile these unfortunate differences. It was not for him to say more upon this part of the question, and it only remained for him to state what was the law upon the subject of combiluv tions of this description. Formerly every combi nation among workmen for the purpose of raising w a ges was illegal, and rendered the parties liable to a misdemeanour; but as it was felt that this was a. hardship, and was in some cases productive of . injustice, in 182 A an Act of Parliament was passed which changed that state of the law and legalised combinations either of masters, to lower the rates of wages, or of workmen, for the pur pose of getting them raised. Whil e , ho wever, t hi s Act of Parliament gave both to the employers and the employed the privilege of holding meetings and takiugproceedings to regulate the rate of wages, it at the same time'expressly prohibited workmen iv N 1 G v Gll4 uulinuy CI IS from taking into their service any persons they pleased, or to prevent any persons from accepting such employment. The question was one of such • very great importance that the grand jury would probably excuse him for calling their attention to some observations made by a late learned judge (Sir N. Tindal) upon the occasion of a trial of a similar kind which took place a few years ago at Stafford. Having read the learned judge's remarks, the RECORDER said—ln the case that will be laid before them it would appear that the parties were accused of combining together to prevent a person being employed in the same establishment with them, or rather to procure his dismissal from that establishment. It appeared that a person named Spence, who had formerly been employed at an eminent printing establishment in the city of Lon don, that of Messrs. Talks, had left that establish to another gentl emen named Jackson, ment and gone to anothe r o f th e same character, belonginghe had been i n th a t serv i ce about a week received a notice to quit f rom t h e foreman, and it appeared that this n o ti ce would not have been ri ven, but for the proc ee di ngs o f the other men en gaged e in the establishm e t, an d aga i nst these per sons present indict men t was preferred. The d c e e in the case would go to s h ow that these laellinviid,en ne, hadafter held what was called in the trade a chapel, and that they came to the determination to insist upon the discharge of the man referred to. The depositions were not very clear, but he gathered from them that the men had come to the resolution that they would not associate with this man, and if the grand jury should believe they intended to go to the extent of not permitting the man to work in the establishment, it appeared to him that it would support the charge of conspiracy. If, however, they should think .that this object was not made out, and that it was probably only the intention of the parties not to have any communication with . their fellow-workman, or, as it was commonly termed, send him to Coventry, this would not be sufficient to support the charge, and they ought to ignore the bill. It was very important that the law upon this subject should be understood, par ticularly as he believed an impression prevailed in the minds of the workmen that they were justified in procuring the dismissal of one of their fellows, and refusing to work with him, by any means short of aotual violence, This was a delusion; and it should be understood that even if the most harm less means were employed for the purn,%-- king any pe r so n h e pre venting an employe r f r t... 4„. pleased into his service, it was a br eac h o f th e l aw for which they would hp grnpreihle to punishm en t." . 331111)4, Marriagt4, antr Otatbt BIRTHS. - BIRTHS EXTRAORDINARY.—The borough of Campbelton, it would appear. is in no danger of figuring amongst places with diminished populations when the next census is taken.
