BILLED IN COAL-MINES. --A thousand men are killed every year in coal-mines. Upon the last eight years the annual average of deaths by accident in coal-mines ,is one thousand and two. This death rate is about eight times greater than that of death by accident among the whole population. For insurance against death by accident the charge actually made in the case of miners is, therefore, - eight times the ordinary rate. A collier's wife becomes a widow, on the average, fourteen years sooner than the wife of an agricultural labourer. Perhaps it is a justification of this state of thing s to assert the fact that a greater proportion of Pe.rsons are killed in the 'metalliferous mines than in the collieries, and that the average duration of metalliferous miners' lives throughout the kingdom is not above thirty-three years. Perhaps it is a justification of this state of things to say, miners are ignorant, their blood be on their heads ! Perhaps it is a justification of this state of things to say, coal-miners are under inspection, and what would you more ! We, knowing that a large number ofTthese deaths—We say nothing here of the burnings, maimings, and crushings short of death—are preventible,"'consider that they have to be prevented, and not justified. A certain degree of risk is, indeed, inseparable from the miner's occupation ; but the pre ventible character of a great number of the accidents that happen can be easily demonstrated. If ,we can save only three hundred, and sixty-five lives out of the yearly thousand, that will be a life a day. It is within the truth to say that in our coal-mines a life a day is sacrificed to one of the two idols, Obstinacy 4nd Indif ference.— Dickens's All the Year Round.

ST. PAUL'S UNITED PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH, BIR KENHEAD.—The opening services were continued yes terday, when sermons were preached in the morning and evening by the Revs. John Thompson, M.A., and John Edmond, of Glasgow. THE NIGHTINGALE. Thousands of persons have been .attracted, during the last few nights, to Lord Dynevor's beautiful park, near Llandelo, Catmarthen shire, by the sweet notes of all unknown warbler, supposed to be the nightingale. DEPARTURE OF TROOPS FROM LIVERPOOL. —On Saturday, the celebrated "White Star" clipper ship Arabian, Captain Row, sailed from the Mersey with 14 officers and 190 non-commissioned officers and men of the 69th regiment for Canada. The Arabian will call at Queenstown to embark about 150 more troops, and will then proceed to Quebec. LARGE EXPORTS OF COTTON.—The railways from Liverpool to Hull have conveyed to the latter port large quantities of cotton, lately, for shipment to the continent. The quantity of cotton exported from Hull last week amounted to the large number of 11,122 bales, of which 7,124 were East Indian, 3;355 American, 550 Brazilian, and 93 Egyptian cotton wool. The exports were chiefly to Antwerp, Cronstadt, St. Petersburg, Dunkirk, Harburg, Gothenburg, Hamburg, Stettin, and Rotterdam.

One effect of this untoward state of matters is to be seen in the announcement by thirteen of our leading restaura teurs, of their intention to increase the amount hitherto charged for dining in their several establishments, on and after to-day. H.M.S. MAJEstic.—By the kind permission of Capt. Mends, C. 8., the public will be allowed to inspect H.M. line-of-battle ship Majestic on every Monday and Thursdays until further notice, commencing this day. She mounts 84 guns, and . is one of the finest vessels in the service. Her stupendous armaments comprise nearly every modern improvement in naval warfare, and she has been thorougly painted and decorated. She lies in the river, souse distance "above Rock Ferry. Visitors will be conveyed from Rock Ferry by steamers every half hour on days of admission. THE LATE FIRE AT THE SAILORS' 'HOME.—AII the debris has at length been cleared away. One of the offices has already paid the amount of the insurance; and payment is expected from the other offices in a few days. In the course of this week the building will be surveyed with a view of ascertaining the extent of injury done to the walls. The erection of a new home is spoken of confidently; to effect this a large amount of money will be required, and resort will no doubt be had to voluntary subscriptions. Whatever may be the committee's intentions, we trust sincerely that the new building will not be built to such a height as the last; it should also be made fireproof, and the wood work should certainly be made of other than pitch pine. ATTEMPT TO COAX THE NEW ZEALAND TRADE TO THE HUMBER.—The New Zealand trade has long adhered to the Thames, and it was held to be a rather plucky venture on the part of the little fellow on the East coast (Hull), when an attempt was made there to fill a. steamship of 1,000 tons with goods and passengers for New Zealand, especially when Liverpool, with its innumerable facilities, had failed more than once.to divert that trade from the channel in which it had flowed for so long a period: True, the " White Star" liners now and again leave the Mersey for New Zealand, but even the decided success which has rewarded the energy and enterprise of Messrs. 'Wilson and Chambers is but an inconsiderable portion of that trade from the Thames. It was not, therefore, without surprise that we react the following lament in a Hull newspaper of Saturday last :-- " For some months past the announcement has been made that the Victory, belonging to the Intercolonial Royal Mail Company, would leave this port for New Zealand about this time, When first we learnt the intention we did not hesitate to express our gratification that, thanks to the enterprising spirit of the firm of which our worthy mayor, Z. C. Pearson, Esq., is the head, Hull was likely to make a direct acquaintance with a trade to the Australian vlonies and New Zealand, which has done so much to enrich Liverpool. There did not then, nor does there now, appear to us any reason why Hull should not share largely in that trade, and we were sanguine that the results of this venture would lead to further efforts in the same direction. We were mis taken, however. No passengers, and scarcely a bale of goods, have offered from this place, and this morning the Victory leaves fur London, where no doubt she will soon fill." We in Liverpool have no jealousy of our neighbours, and we very much regret that Hull failed in this case, for that port deserved a better fate. The young blood" there is working great changes for the better, and it would be a pity if this event depressed their spirits. , • THE WEATHER.--THE COUNTRY.T—A long-wished. for and beneficial change has taken place in the weather. On Friday night there was a heavy and welcome fall of rain, and during Saturday there were several heavy showers, wtth intervals of sunshine; Saturday night, and during the greater part of yesterday, there was a continuous fall of genial rain. The face of the country, about our northern metropolis, has quite changed in consequence of this timely and providential visitation. v v6Gbautvu lao Ol,tun6 &u m" ille, WILL WU lleiab, ter the first time this year, have put on their vernal mantles. Wild flowers, that seem to have slept, during the last three months, have come forth in all their beauty to gladden the eyes, and gratify the other senses. The country, which up to a few days ago, looked as bleak and barren as at midwinter, now appears to have shaken off the dreary pall that for nearly seven,months has covered, it, and for the first time . appears in its proper garb. The state of the poor must be benefitted by this salutary change, and it is a blessing for which all may feel truly thankful. . , LIVERPOOL POLICE' COURT, SATURDAY. (Before Mr. RAFFLES.) THE UNFULFILLED WISH. John De Mont was brought up on remand on a charge of being drunk and disorderly, at the Sailors' Home, and threat ening Mr. Murphy. The details of the case appeared in our paper of Saturday and the hearing of the case was adjourned at the request of the defendant, in order to produce witnesses. He called four, 'but none answered. Mr. Murphy said the defendant was a great annoyance tothe Home when drunk, but when sober he was allowed the same facilities as any Other perscn. The prisoner, in a violent manner, declared that there was a spite against him at the HoMe. Mr. Murphy denied this, and said that in 185 S Mr. Mansfield fined him £lO for crimping. • Mr. Raffles fined him 10s. and costs. THE CHARGE OF MURDER AGAINST TWO BOYS Two boys, named Philip M‘Mullin and Thomas Halloran, who stood remanded on a charge of having killed another boy, named Patrick Gibbons, on Wednesday night week,,inJohnson-street, were brought up. Mr. Cobb appeared for the prisoners. , It will be remembered that the prisoners were before the court a few days ago, and on Thur sda y there Was an inquest held on the body of deceased, when the e v i dence was gone fully into, and appeared in our paper of Friday. The coroner's jury returneda verdict of wilful murder against the lads, and the coroner returned the case for trial accordingly. The evidence before Mr. Raffles on Saturday was the same as that given before the coroner; but his Worship took a different view of the case, and sent the prisoners for trial for manslaughter. A HUSBAND CHARGED WITH CAUSING HIS WIFE'S DEATH. John Higgott, of Edge-hill, was brought up on remand, charged with having caused the death of his wife Elizabeth. On Wednesday night the deceased was drunk, and the prisoner gave her a push, when she fell, and died soon afterwards. The details of thiS lamentable case appeared in our paper of Friday. It all arose through the curse of drink, as it was shown that deceased was an habitual drunkard. An inqueit was held on the body; and the medical evidence clearly esta blished the fact that death was produced by extravasation of blood on the brain, from natural causes; and that the fall from the push of her husband had nothing to dd with 4. The same evidence was given before Mr. Raffles, and he at Once dis charged the prisoner. THE CHARGE AGAINST THE FRENCH SWINDLER. Pascal, the Frenchman who stood remanded on a charge of • having obtained goods from France, under false pretences, was again broughtup. Mr. Bluck appeared for him. The secretary of the French Consul was present, and said, in consequence Of the ex pense that would attend bringing witnesses from France to prosecute the prisoner, the parties would not come forward, and therefore no further evidence would be given at present. He requested the goods found would be retained by the police. This was agreed to, and the prisoner WS discharged, the police holding possession of the property for the present. ' (Before Messrs. BOOTH and HuTcnisoN.) DOCTORS DISAGREEING! A gentleman, described as Dr. Hamilton, of Mill-street, charged another gentleman, described as Dr. Patterso n, with having assaulted him. Mr. Cobb appeared for the complain ant. The way - About three o'clock in the morning the defendant was at the door of Dr. Dranbridge, of Mill-street, where he went for the purpose of calling up that gentleman, to consult with him about a patient, who, it seemed, was in a serious state. Pr. Hamilton was going home, but it did not appear 'whether - hO was out professionally or otherwise. He imagined that the defendant was the son of Dr. Drawbridge, a young gentleman with whom he was acquainted, and . therefqre addressed him in rather familiar terms, whereon, as he stated, Dr. Patterson struck him a blow in the face, withotit further "rhydie or reason." The defence set up was that Di: Hafitly= used insulting language to, and pillled Dr. Patterson do*n tne door steps by the:tail of the coat, and then the latter admitted that in self defenee lie ..ave the other doctor a "tap" on . the face, and contended he was justified in doing so. A policenian and a servant-girl were examined for the defence, and these were subject to a purgatorial crcus.examination by Mr. Cobb, but with all Ws ingenious ability he could not shake their eVidenee.. So the magistrates came to a conclusion and dismissed the complaint, thus proving the truth of the adage, " Who shall decide, when doctors diSagree I" THE EXTRAORDINARY CASE OF MR. HATCH. At the close of the case for the prosecution, on Friday, Mr. Serjeant Shee addressed the jury at considerable length for the defence, commenting severely 'upon the evidence that had been adduced, and concluding by expressing an opinion that when the jury had heard the evidence he shOuld lay before them, they would feel it to, be their duty, however painful it might be to their feelings, to say: that the defendant was not guilty upon the present charge. The following witnesses were then examined for the defence Stephanie Augusta Plummer, an interesting .child eight years of age, sister of the defendant, said :—I remember my sister going to Mr. Hatch's, and I remember going there too, a few days afterwards. We arrived at Wandsworth in the afternoon, and 1 and my papa and mamma went into the dining room, and saw Mrs. Hatch there. Mr. Hatch was not at home. My papa and mamma went away in the evening, and soon afterwards I and Lucy Hatch were put to bed together. My sister slept in an adjoining room, and 1 could hear her come to bed, I could not sleep, and began to cry because my mamma had gone away. After some time Mr, Hatch came into my room. He was alone. He asked me how it was I was not asleep, and I made no answer. He then came up to my bed. [The witness here detailed what she said afterwards occurred, the particulars being, of course, unfit for publication.] Mr. Hatch had nothing but his night shirt on, and I think he came from his own room. After this he wished me good night, and left the room. I had heard him go into My sister's roam a few minutes before he came into mine. On the following morning my sister told me that Mr. Hatch had done something to her, and I said he had done the same to me. Mr. Hatch called me into his bedroom on the same morning, and Mr. Hatch fetched my sister from her room, and she got into his bed. Mrs. .Hatch was in the bed at the same time. We all five were in the bed together—myself, Mr. and Mrs. Hatch, my sister, and Lucy Hatch. Mrs. Hatch got out of bed first, and she then dressed Lucy, and I and my sister were dressed by the servant. My papa and mamma came to Mr. Hatch's on the same day, and I saw my sister go with my mamma to the water-closet. After this my papa, mamma, and my sister and I went into the garden, and Mrs. Hatch accompanied us. At this time I had told my mamma what Mr. Hatch had done. She asked me if I liked the place, and I told her I did not, and shortly after this we all went away in a cab to the railway station, and as we were going home I heard my sister say how Mr. Hatch had treated her, and I also told her what bad happened to me. On the following morning Mr. Gay, our surgeon, was sent for, and I and my sister told him what had taken place, in his presence. I have remained at ,home with my papa and mamma ever since. Cross-examined by Mr. James—l had never been at school before I went to Mr. Hatch's. I was on a visit to my sister once at a school at Southampton, and my mother came down and fetched us both away. I cannot read or write. Sometimes she used to take me to church. We went from our house in Wiltshire to Mr. Hatch's. My mother used to take me to church regu- larly every Sunday, but I have never been taught to read my bible or prayer book. My sister first told me omething Mr. Hatch had done. I, . knew what she meant.. I don't know where I learned to know what she meant, but. I did know. She did not say anything more at that time, and I told her he had done the same thing to me. I did not much like going to school, and I was anxious to get away. I did not .tell my gover ness anything about what had happened. I don't think I said anything about it to my mamma while we were walking in the garden. I had told her before, and as we were walking about I heard my mamma tell my papa what Mr..llatcli had done. We all had tea together after this, and my mamma gave Lucy five shil- lings and a toy. Eugenie did not say anything to me about 4Mr. Hatch until after school was' over at twelve o'clock. On this same day, I think I was in my bed room alone 'with my mamma, and told her then what Mr. Hatch had done. My papa was present at the time, and heard what I said. I asked my mamma to go up stairs, as I had something to tell her. My sister heard what I said, but she did not say anything. Mr. Hatch had a candle in his hand when he came into my bedroom, and he placed it in the wash-hand stand. My sister told all that had happened as we were going along in the cab, and also in the rectory carriage, and before Mr. Gay, and Mr. Pratt, the solicitor. I understood all that she meant, and that it was something very bad and wicked. My mother has talked to me about it several times, and she spoke to me about it just before I was called into court. I don't know what she said. Iforget it. I was in waiting yesterday with my mother, and sometimes' she talked to me about - this matter. My sister Polly has told me what Lucy Hatch said yester day. I call my sister Mary "Polly." A paper was read to - us last night by papa. He did not read the whole of it. I don't know what newspaper it was that papa read to us. lam sure my mamma did not tell me what I was to say in court, but that I recollect that I saw Mr. Gay, the surgeon, yesterday, , and he has been walking about with me and my mother. Re-examined —l don't think I have been told by any body' what to say when I came here. I have been waiting about the court to be examined, and when I was . called I came in. By Baron Channell—When Mr. Hatch was, in my room, I saw Mrs. Hatch in her own room. Baron Channell—Then she could see all that took place ? Witness—Yes. (This answer created great sensation in the. court.) Baron Channell—How far was Mrs. Hatch from you at the time ? Witness—Not very far: Baron Channell—As far as you are from me? (About ten feet.) Witness—Not so far. ("hong..Al ____Whaf I%* Ar I -hr. 11,1 A;AVA I I 1;a on ? Witness—l think it was upon the blanket, and under the counterpane. Baron Chauncll—Where was Eugenie ?. Witness—l think she was on the blanket, and under the "eounterpane, too. Caroline Plummer, the mother of the defendant, was the next witness. She said : Z remember taking my daughter Eugenie to Mr. Hatch's, on the 11th of August. I had dinner, or rather, I should say, luncheon, with them. I did not ask Mr. Hatch; or any one else in the house, to allow my daughter to go to his bed in the morning; but I did say that she had been used to be petted, and I wished them to be kind to her. Mr. Hatch then said that she should be treated as well as his own child, and she was in the habit of coming into his bed in the morning, and Eugenie should do the same. I never made the suggestion that she should go to his bed. A fortnight after this I took my other daughter Stephanie to Mr. Hatch's, and during the whole day I had no opportunity of speaking to my daughter. Eugenie alone ; either Mr. or Mrs. Hatch was with us the whole time. When it was getting near the time for taking our departure I took the child to the closet, which was the only place I could get to be with her alone. She burst out crying immediately, and asked me to take her home, and she appeared very unhappy. I returned her next day to Mr. Hatch's ; but I cannot tell, what made me do to. The witness, who appeared to'be of a very excitable temperament, then said : " I am nervous, you know; I fancied something was wrong, and I went, back. I did not rush into the school-room, but went in quickly, and I said, " Halloo, Lucy, running about the passage and my children in the school-room ; I thought there were to be no favourites here." I saw Mr. and Mrs. Hatch shortly afterwards, and told them I was come to take my children away. While the things were being packed up I went with my daughter to the closet, and she told me Mr. Hatch was such a disgusting man. I asked what she meant, and she made a com munication to me. She did not state to the full extent what had occurred, and I said " nonsense," and nothing more occurred. I spoke to my husband, and he enter tained the same opinion that I did. There was no time for anything more to be said, as we had to leave by the eight o'clock train. lam §ure that Stephanie did' not say anything to me in the house. I gave the child. Lucy a Noah's ark and five shillings before we left. We. had hardly got out of sight of the house in the cab when Eugenie told us what Mr.' Hatch had done to her. We did not arrive at our residence in Wilt shire until the middle of the night, and on the following morning we sent for our medical man, and Mr. Pratt, our solicitor, came on the same day, and, after this we, communicated with the bishop. Our object in this was to spare our children the pain of a public exposure. We subsequently received notice to attend at Wands worth before the magistrates, but on the day before we were informed Mr. Hatch had retigned, and that our attendance was not necessary, and we then obtained a warrant for Mr. Hatch's apprehension, but it could not be executed because he went away. I afterwards received from Mrs. Hatch the letter that has been referred to. Cross-examined —Both on the 25th and on the 26th I had cep t no epportunity of being al one w ith E ugen i e , except in the water-closet. The witness spoke this in a loud voice. I swear was not in a bedroom with "Eugenie and my husband, alone, on either of those days. The other party were always present. Mr. James—Who do you mean by the "other party'?" Witness—Mr. and Mrs, Hatch. Stephanie never told me in the bedroom that Mr, Hatch had behavtd indecently to het. If any one has said this it is a deliberate falsehood. t can swear she did not tell me so herself. I swear that I did not walk ronnd the kitchen garden with my husband and my trio daughters on either of those two days, and that I told _ _ _ my husband what ,Stephanie had told me. She had not told me at that time. I may have stated at the former trial that Stephanie told me Mr. Hatch was dressed, and that he unbuttoned his trousers; but if I did say so it is a mistake of mine, She never did saysO. I remember the child told me that she noticed Mr. Hatch had, a ,very shabby night shirt on, or that it was pieced or mended. I don't know whether I have mentioned this before, but I was surprised that the child should make such an observation. I don't know whether my husband stopped the cab and brought me some beer; it he did it was not an unusual thing. I have not had brandy and water. to-day. I did have some yesterday. To-day I, had some sherry wine. I cannot remember whether I had any brandy and water yesterday, but I had the day before. I should like to have some brandy and water or sherry now. (A laugh.) I did not drink beer with the policeman after the conviction of Mr. Hatch. A bottle of stout was sent for, and I drank part of it, and the remainder was left for the policeman. Mr. James—How many schools has your daughter been at ? Witness—As many as I thought proper to send her to—eight or ten perhaps. She was only ,a fortnight at one. It was quite long enough. It is very probable that I threatened to publish a statement that the pro prietress of this school had not kept her agreement with me. Mr. James—Did she go to a school at Southampton ? Witness—l dare say you know all about it. (A Augh.) Mr. James—Why did you take her away from South ampton ? • Witness—Because she was not treated properly. I am a very particular woman, although I do take a little brandy and water and sherry wine, and I should be very glad to give you some if you required it. (A laugh.) Cross-examination continued—My daughter was at three different schools at Bath. There was a reason for her removal from each, and, besides, a change does her good. (Laughter.) She told me from the first that she did not like " the Hatches," and she was very anxious to get away. I swear I did not hear outside that the gardener had been examined this morning. Mr. Plummer read a portion of the report in the newspapers last night. I cannot read ; but whether Eugenie fold her sister what had taken place during the day in court lam not aware. I did not object to my child going, to Mr. Hatch's bedroom, because I was anxious that there should not be any jealousy between the two children. My youngest child cannot read. I do not wish to hurry her education, on account of her health being delicate. I do not go regularly to church or any other place of worship, but Mr. Plummer takes the children to church occasionally. I did not take my children to church during the year 1859, but I am as good as those who do go. I have had a bad foot, and my spirits have been failing since I lost one of my children. Mr. James—l ask you—without any reference to any bodily ailment—was it your habit, as a mother, to take your children to chapel or church? Witness—No, it was not. Cross-examination continued—l did not cause the great bell of our house to be rung upon my return home to celebrate the conviction of Mr. Hatch. Re-examined—l should say that both the children had told their stories before we arrived at Paddington, but I am certain they had done so before we arrived at home. My daughter was never removed from any school on account of misconduct. She was beloved by all. My children have been taught to say their prayers —The Lord's Prayer,—not the Belief—the prayer for their parents, and little hymns. My husband used to take the children to church, but he did not go every Sunday, hecatrse sometimes he was prevented by the weather or some other cause. At the conclusion of the examination of this wan ess the trial was again adjourned. The trial of Mary Eugenia Plummer was resumed on Saturday morning, the fourth day. Mr. Thomas Plummer, the father of the defendant, was called and examined by Mr. Sergeant Shee. He deposed that he resided in Wiltshire, and was a person_ of independent means. He was a member of the Church of England. Mrs. Plummer called upon Mr. Hatch at Wandsworth, with Eugenia, and after a general conversation as to terms, it was arranged that the child Eugenia should remain, and that the other child, Stephanie, should be sent afterwards. When he made the arrangement he was positive Mrs. Plummer made a request that the child was to be petted. He was positive Mrs. Plummer never requested that the child might,be taken into Mr. Hatch's bed. The witness then contirMed all the evidence of Mrs. Plummer as to what the children had stated respecting the conduct of Mr. Hatch I towards them. In consequence of what he beard he took the children away on the 26th ; they went away in a cab, and afterwards by railway to Wiltshire. lie positively denied that he associated with the cabman on terms of equality, or that his wife drank beer or brandy with the cabman. On his arrival at home at night, he ordered his medical man to attend the.next morning, and then sent for Mr. Pratt, the family solicitor. The surgeon arrived about noon that day, and Mrs. Plummer and Eugenia related the whole of the circumstances to him in the presence of his mother-in-law. Mr. Pratt shortly afterwards arrived, and witness com 7 municated all the facts to him. Both statements of the children were submitted to him, and they did not differ in the least particular. Mr. Pratt then advised that proceedings should be instituted against Mr. Hatch; and accordingly, by his advice, he went to London, and there communicated with Messrs. Humphreys on the subject. The result was, that a letter was written to the bishop by Mr. Pratt, which he read over and signed. He afterwards received notice that an inquiry was directed, and he went with the children to Wandsworth, when he was told that no inquiry would take place, as Mr. Hatch had resigned. The witness was further examined at some length, but merely in confirmation of tho-statements of the children, as described in the evidence of Mrs. Plummer yesterday. He admitted that his wife was violent at times, and had committed an assault upon one of their servants, for which he had to pay £5 to compromise; his wife had struck the girl with a candlestick, not a poker. She kept no servants who could have instructed Eugenia in • her knowledge of the person of man. _ _ . Tn cross-examination, Mr. Plummer said he was unable to say whether or not himself or his wife had beer or brandy with the cabman. Mr: Pratt, sen., was called, and deposed that he had acted as attorney to Mr. Plummer, and he said it was in consequence of the statements made to him by Mr. Plummer that he advised proceedings against Mr. Hatch. Mr. Pratt, jun., was also examined, and detailed the statement made by the child to him, his writing the letter to the bishop, and the subsequent proceedings that took place at Ridley's Hotel, in consequence of Mrs. Hatch's letter. When Mr. Hatch surrendered he was in a state of great excitement, and merely said he must have been mad when he had done what was charged against him. Ho refused an apology, and was given into custody. Mr. John Gay deposed that he was a surgeon, and resided at Swindon. •He was sent for by Mr. Plummer on the 27th of August, when the children repeated to him the story of the conduct of Mr. Hatch. so frequently referred to. The witness said he was never betrothed to Eugenia that he was ever aware of. 110 A ttoncicd her as a medical man, and she always conducted herself with propriety, and was a good girl. During the evidence of the witness he was seized with a fit, and had to be removed out of court. • Mr. Gay, who had recovered from his fit, was retailed, and stated that he had examined Eugenia on the 26th, but did not find anything more than a slight inflamma tion on her person. This closed the case for the defence. The Court then adjourned. Mr. Edwin James, Q.C., addressed • the jury on,the , evidence. All his opening sentences were inaudible. He proceeded to dwell upon the irreproachable character which Mr. Hatch bore up to the time of this affair, and contended that the whole superstructure of the wretched story against him had been shattered by the evidence which had been adduced. He urged that the prurient and filthy ideas with regard to which Eugenia Plummer had deposed had been put into ber head by her mother, and that the child readily adopted them until they grew into the story which she had told. He characterised the whole matter as a wicked, foul conspiracy, and expressed his opinion that Mrs. Plummer gave ,her evidence in a state of inebriation, if not of positive delirium. tremens. Mr. Baron Channell postponed his summing up till this morning. PILE GREAT EASTERN.-PREPARATIONS FOR .THE START. The Great Eastern is announced to sail on the 9th of June for New York, and there is no doubt whatever that she will sail punctually on the day fixed. Tho con fidence of the proprietors continues unabated in the Success of the great undertaking; the payments on the new .shares have been made with readiness, and the value of the old shares has increased considerably within the last few days. THE CENSUS OF NEXT YEAR,—Lord Palmerston has been waited upon at Cambridge-house by four deputa tions, representing the dissenting deputies, the Congre gational Union, the Board of Congregational Ministers, and the executive of the Liberation Society ; who wished to acquaint his lordship, as the head of the government, with the strong objections entertained by the dissenting body to that part of the Census Bill, now before Parlia ment, which compels every householder, under a penalty, to state the "religious profession" of every one sleeping in his house on the night of the census. VISIT TO THE OFFICE OF THE LONDON TIMES. By the Correspondent of the Sew York Herald. LONDON, March 24, 1860. Irmo a Live London Newspaper is Printed—The Locality Of the Office—The " Finishing Boom"—Compositors and Proof Readers—The Puplicate Forms, and How they are Made—The Paper Room—Quantity of Paper Used and its Cost—The Wetting Machine—The Press Room—The American "Ike" Presses—The First Steam Press—Mode of Circulating the London Times —Statistics, 4c: Through the politeness of the manager of the estab lishment, I was 'permitted yesterday to visit the mechanical portion of the office of the London Times, and to spend sufficient time there to get a tolerably good idea of this immense concern, and the manner in which business is done in it. The office s as almost everybody's knows, is located in "Printing House Square," and probably almost everybody has imagined . . that "Printing House Square" is a large and noisy Place in some busy thoroughfare of London, and that the Times office would of course be in some locality where it could at least be easily found. Such, how ever, is not the case, and without a map, and constant inquiry, it would be almost impossible for a stranger to find it, even when placed within a block of the office. Striking towards the Thames from off Ludgate-hill, in the vicinity of Blackfriar's bridge, I threaded half a dozen narrow streets, and when near the river, and satisfied that I had lost my way, I came upon a little triangular space, from one side of which rose a dingy looking brick building, over the door of which was a little sign, "The Thmes office," and underneath the arms of England. It was a perfect solitude, within three minutes' walk of one of the great arteries of London. Upon entering I was shown into a small room, called " the finishing room." Here, upon presenting my card, I was introduced to a very gentlemanly man, who informed me that he had been connected with the paper for more than forty years, and who offered to show me over the establishment. In his room the forms are all made up, the galleys being brought down from the com posing room, and the one adjoining, for that purpose. Here , alone were the galleys of matter , and advertise ments leftover, of the latter of which my guide informed me there were often sixty or seventy columns, for which space cannot be found even in the immense double sheet' which is, daily published. The day before, two thou sand advertisements were taken in at the office, which is alongside of this "finishing room," and which is devoted exclusively to the reception of advertisements — and about fifteen hundred different ones go into the paper daily, making,up from eight to ten pages of the sixteen printed. About sixteen columns of these daily are advertisements of servants wanting places. These are charged eighteenpence each, and are limited to three lines, many of them being rewritten after coming to the office, and made to conform to the prescribed form. No difference in price is made on account of any additional number of insertions. From here we went into an adjoining room, where the "day compositors " were at work upon the' second edition of the paper, which is printed at half-past twelve o'clock, and contains, in addition to the morning news, the letter of the Paris correspondent, and such foreign matter as arrives in the morning mail. There are fifty compositors employed in this department, and who, after the evening edition is worked off, go to work upon the advertisements, while there are seventy compositors employed upon the night work, making in all one hundred and twenty composi tors. To correct their matter there are employed twenty-four proof readers, one half for the day and the other for the night. From this composing room we went into the foundry. The morning edition of the Times varies from sixty to seventy thousand copies, and in order to save the time in printing, and the expense of setting up an extra form, a duplicate of the original form is made here to be worked upon one press, while the original itself is on the other. This is effected in the following manner :—The form being brought down here, a pulp of papier in ache, pre pared by some secret process, is spread on it, and beaten into it with a large heavy brush. This process and the hardening of the mould occupies but a minute and a halt; and when it is taken off the form it, of course, presents a perfect fire simile of the form itself. It is then placed in a sort of a press, and while yet pliable is shaped in the circular form which it is necessary the forms should have to accommodate themselves to the cylinder presses, and then the molten type metal is poured in, and in two minutes more it is cooled, and, being taken out of the mould, the imperfections which' have occurred in the casting are rectified, and iu half an. hour this form is ready for the prT. It would require the work of seventy men seven hours to effect the same purpose as this little piece of work—which is done in thirty minutes. The papier ;nada process of moulding has been in use in the TiM4S office about five years. The secret of the composition is known only to the discoverer, an Italian named Dalegani, who lives in London, and who brings the prepared pulp to the Times office every even ing. He has not been able to procure a patent for his invention, it being alleged that it is only an improve ment upon the ancient method of stereotyping with plaster moulds. They say they rind the composition superior in every respect to plaster, it being much cleaner, and not injuring the face of the type so much. Six duplicates may be taken from one of these moulds before it is burnt through. The last page, containing the leading article of the Times, is sent down to the foundry abeitt four o'clock in the morning, and at a quarter pastsix the impre . ssion is off. From here we went into the paper room, which is by the side of the foundry, on the basement floor, passimg through a large carpenter's shop, where halt a dozen men are kept constantly at work, and looking into several neat little bathrooms constructed for the accom modation of the workmen. The paper room we found tilled up with paper ; and here I obtained some in teresting statistics as to the amount of raw material consumed in the publication of the Times. The paper is furnished from four paper mills, the pro perty of the proprietors of the Times, aad is made en tirely of linen. During the Russian war, (as a great many of the rags come from Russia, and there being, therefore, a fear that the supply might be cut short,) the proprietors offered a reward of ono thousand pounds sterling for the discovery of a substitute for linen. All sorts of material—straw, vegetable fibres of a great , many descriptions, shavings, &c.,—=were sent them to experiment upon ; but they found nothing which would answer the purpose, and by some means managed to keep up the supply of rags during the continuance of the war. Nine tons, or ninety thousand sheets of this paper are used daily, and there is only room here to keep three days' supply on hand. Each sheet costs the proprietois a penny and a farthing and a fraction ; that the bifo - snEets on winch the paper is iitinted, with the duty, the guide informed me, cost fully threepence, the price at which the paper atter it is printed is sold to the newsmen—the ,profits of course, then, must be derived entirely from advertisements, and the addition to the circulation of the paper is no direct, pecuniary advantage... The circulation has, however, increased considerably within the past ten:years. In 1851 thirteen millions of copies were printed; in 1857, sixteen mil- lions one hundred, thousand ; in 1858, sixteen millions seven hundred and eighty-five thousand km hundred and fifty-six ; and last year over seventeen millions, or an average of fifty-four thousand copies daily, were printed. The largest number ever printed of any single edition was on the day after the funeral of the Duke of Wellington, when seventy thousand copies were struck off. At the further end of this room is a machine, which is used for "wetting down," the old process of doing this the hand having been discarded abOut . five years since, and the machine now in use having been invented by tin employ 6 in the paper room. Tbo .pparatuc is very simple, consisting of a woollen apron, upon which the paper is fed, and which carries it under a cylinder and brush, the whole being wet, and the paper, twenty four sheets of which are fed at one time, coming 'out thoroughly dampped. It is piled away in an adjoining room, and twelve hours afterwards is all turned by hand. By this machine 110,000 sheets may be wet down in seven hours, with the labour of three' men—the same amount of work which, under the old' process, ;equired the labour of twelve men 'twelve hours. From this we went up into the press-room,. where, by this time, the evening edition was being worked off upon two of Applegath's eight-cylinder vertical presses. This is certainly one of the most beautiful pieces of machinery I ever saw. Four pages of the circular forms are screwed on to an upright cylinder, which forms the centre of the huge machine, which, in all its parts, is about thirty feet in diameter. Then ranged around a platform above are eight pairs of feeding rollers, which take the sheet, and, conveying it to the cylinder, pass it round it, and then by means of rollers and tapes pass it back directly under the feeding rollers where it entered, and where the fly-boy sits to take it off. In this way eight sheets are turned off from the press each second and a-half, amounting to twelve thousand five hundred an hour—the two presses in the morning, in two hours, printing fifty thousand sheets. , These presses have been in operation since 1848, and have never been out of order but once, when a Prussian officer, who, was exa mining one of them a little too minutely, had the eape , of his cloak caught in the main cylinder, and would himself have followed it, had he not retained sufficient presence/of mind to unclasp his outer garment, which he must have done with lightning-like quickness. As it was, his cloak was torn into very small rags. There was no second edit . ° i of the Times that day, and the proprietors were subjected to a little bill of repairs, amounting to £3OO. These machines cost £3,000 each, and are superintended by the brother of the inventor. Each one requires sixteen men to feed and fly it. In the adjoining room are two of Hoe's ten-cylinder presses. These were built in Manchester, and one has been in use for two 'or three years, and the other has just been completed. These are used for printing the advertising pages, which go on at seven o'clock in the evening, and the first side of the news, which commences at two o'clock in the- morning. These machines out .£6,000 each. They throw of each, 16,400 impressions an hour, and have been made to print 20,900 . ; but they complain of them, that they had them manufactnred with the Understanding that they would print 35,000 all hour, but that they found, when they struck off over 17,000, some of the more delicate portions of the ma chinery were liable to breakage. Notwithstanding this, however, it seems they had another machine built, at double the cost of their Applegath machines, and thus John Bull pays homage to the inventive genius of Young America. It was in the office of the London Times that, in November, 1814, the first steam press, a double cylinder machine, was put up, and by hard work they managed to make it throw off twelve hundred im pressiots an hour. What a change in the facilities for multiplying impressions betwqen that time and this. From the press-room we entered the " publishing room." The edition of the Times is all sold to newsmen, and the proprietors have nothing to do with furnishing subscribers With the paper. No mailing is done at the office, neither are the names of subscribers taken there. Shonld a person in America send a draft or the money to the London Dines office for a year's subscription, the order would immediately be handed over to a newsman. The principal one of these in London is a man named Smith, who takes daily from the Tunes office twenty four waggon loads—about twenty-eight thousand papers a-day. He gets sixteen thousand of these at half past five in the morning, to send off to his agents and sub scribers all over England by the first train. About 19,000 only of the edition of the Times is circulated in London. Besides Smith there are about one hundred and fifty newsmen in London, who purchase and circu late the Times; and the town publication is usually delivered about seven o'clock in the publishing-room-- each newsman taking his turn to be served first, an alphabetical list being made out, and A served first one morning, B the next,' and so on to the end of the list. The newsmen pay threepence each for the papers, and sell them for fourpence. The newsmen order their papers the day beforehand, and no more are printed than they - call for. The publishing-office presents a very lively scene. The most spacious portion of it is in front of the counter, and here are two or three hundred boys waiting for papers. They are counted from behind by a young man, who counts three hundred papers a minute, and the boys fold them on the tables in front. A few statistics and I am done with the mechanical department of the London Times. The receipts for advertisements are about £250,000, or a million and a quarter of dollars annually, and the receipts for the paper about the same. The receipts for the sale of the paper, being cancelled by the actual cost of the raw material, of course, amount to nothing, and there is an expense of about £lOO,OOO a-year required to carry on the establishment, leaving, therefore, a profit of £150,000, or seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars per annum. Three hundred and fifty men are employed in the various departments, from the editor down to the fly-boy. Twenty of these are Parliamentary reporters, engaged in reporting the debates. These each take notes fifteen minutes at a time, and then retire to a room in the rear of the reporters' gallery to write them out, and four cabs are kept constantly running during the time of ses- sion, between the London Times office. and the houses of Parliament, to bring the copy which these indefa tigable workers furnish. But I am getting on to another branch of my subject, and shall leave the edi- torial characteristics of the office for a futtireletter. CRUEL EXECUTION IN MONTENEGRO. RAGUSA, April 28. Seven individuals of the Luchich family, of Vikovich, in the Nahie Cerniska, all young persons, appropriated 20 lb. of lead, on occasion of the transport of a qua tity of this metal, with which they were entrusted in the year 1855, on account of Prince Spizza, and directed to be delivered at the house of the Pope Philip Bokan. Eventually repenting of this fraud they avowed it to Bokan, who promised to pardon them, without even demanding restitution. Notwithstanding this he declared the fact to the Prince, and the seven persons implicated were put in prison, and suffered the basti nado, and then, after having a cloth tied round each of their persons, and a stick placed in their hands, they were paraded through several bazaars. After having suffered this punishment, which is deemed very igno minious by the natives of this country, they were driven out of Montenegro. Among these unfortunate men were Giuro Dragov .and Marco Jovon Luchich, who resolved to take vengeance for all this suffering and dishonour on the traitor Bokan. On the 16th of last month, about seven o'clock in the morning, Bokan left home, accompanied by his nephew Stauko Giurov, intending to go to the Bazaar of Bieka ; but when they arrived near the village of BUkovich they were attacked by the two Luchiches. The whole four discharged their muskets, and both the Bokans and Marco Luchich'fell dead on the spot, and Giuro Dragov Luchich succeeded in escaping to Albania. The Prince, informed of what had occurred, caused more than thirty individuals of the Luchich family to be arrested, and ordered them to be transported to Cetinia. A few days afterwards he pronounced sen tence of death against Stanko, the brother of Giuro, and . Ivo, the brother of Marco Luchich, and commanded the nearest relatives of those unhappy men to put them to death with their own hands. In accordance with this decree, -Drago Luchich was required to kill his son Stanko, and Nico Luchich to kill his brother. It was further ordered by the Piince that the execution should take place in the before-mentioned village of Bukovich. Having reached the spot, the inexorable Perianikes forced nld Drago Luchich, whose prayers and cries were disregarded, to aim his pistol at his own son, and it was not until the pistol had missed tire twice that it was snatched cut of his hand and discharged against Stanko, who fell mortally wounded. Nico Luphich covered his eyes with one hand while he fired at his brother, who expired at the same moment. 'The senators and the Perianikes quitted Bukovich after this execution, but not before they bad seiied all the arms belonging to the Luchich family, numbering seventy men. The people of Montenegro assert ,that such an act of cruelty is without example in their country. The Earl of Derby has issued cards for a dinner party on the 18th inst., at his mansion in St. James's-square. As many as 1,000 Jews of Tetuan are stated to have taken passports from the Spanish . authorities to establish themselves in different places in Spain. Preparations are in progress for a voyage which Prince Napoleon intends to make to all the principal ports of the Mediterranean and Constantinople. FLOGGING HUSBANDS.—A petition to Parliament has' been very numerously signed by females of Wool- 41.0 bill miroduced tiy, .Lord Raynham, which provides for the infliction of corporal punishment for assaults upon females. GREAT PEDESTRIAN FEAT.—We understand that Mr Charles Nalby, of London, a celebrated pedestrian; has been matched, for a bet of £5OO, to walk 1,500 miles in 1,000 hours. The fe . at is to take place in a short time, either at'Nottingham, Derby, Chesterfield, or Sheffield. —Derby Reporter. Her Majesty's royal paddle yacht Victoria and Albert has been lashed alongside the sheer jetty at Portsmouth Dockyard, for the purpose of receiving her new shaft, which arrived in the yard on Thursday morning. The staff of the steam factory are at work upon her day and night ; and her repairs, &c., are expected to be com pleted in about a week's time. Cosi or A GUN FACTORY.—The expenditure at Enfield factory, during the financial year ending with March last amounted to £21.5,557, more than half of which went in wages, aliont £56,000 in stores, and £32,000 in buildings and machinery. During the year there were delivered into store from this factory. 87,405 musket . rifles complvle, of Chu piffixtu of 0.53. THREE HITNDRED YEARS Aoo.—The following reso lution appears on the, books of the Boston Co r p ora ti on for the year 1545 :—"Resolved, that no beer shall be drunk that has not been brewed in the borough." We fancy that some of our modern topers would not relish the re-enactment of this restriction of our forefathers of 300 years ago. It was certainly carrying out the spirit of protection with a vengeance.—Stainford Mercury. FALLING IN OF A CAVE AT, - 4EIGATE.--A large sand cave on the premises of the Red Cross Inn, Reigate, fell in on Wednesday morning - about twelve o'clock. Over this cave there were erected several cottages; and it was soon discovered that no less than five of these buildings, or at least portions of them, including all the staircases, had fallen in with the cave. The inhabitants fortu nately escaped, however, though the bedsteads in four of the cottages were actually partly hanging over the immense chasm, and in one of them a poor woman was lying very ill, her doctor having just left her. The inhabitants of the town have very kindly got up a sub scription in aid of the poor people who have their furni ture destroyed by this extraordinary accident. THE NEw ARCHBISHOP OF YORK.—The Right Rev. Charles Thomas Langley, Bishop of Durham, who has been nominated to the Archbishopric of York, rendered 'vacant by the death of the most Rev. Dr. Musgrave, .was born at Rochester, 1794. He was educated at Westminster School, wherioe he proceeded to Christ Church, Oxford, where he gained a studentship in 1812. In 1815 he took his degree of Bachelor of Arts, being first class in.classics, and was public tutor of Christ Church from 1818 until 1828. Prior to his resignation: of the tutorship, namely, in 1827, he was presented_by Mr. C. B. Wall, the then patron, to the rectory of West Tytherley, near Stockbridge, Hampshire, which he held until 1829, when he was appointed to the head master ship of Harrow School. This appointment he held until 1836, in which year the act was passed constituting the new bishopric of Ripon. Dr. Langley was' appointed the first bishop, and held the bishopric until 1856, when, upon the resignation of Bishop Maltby, he was tran slated to the bishopric of Durham. The new archbishop is the son of Mr. John Langley, late Recorder of Ro chester, and subsequently magistrate of Thames Police court. He married, in 1831, the Hon. Caroline, eldest daughter of the first Lord Congleton, THE DAILY TIMES, MONDAY, MAY 14, 1860. sparting LATEST BETTING.

THE PAI`ER DUTIES.--A public meeting of the inha bitants of the metropolis will be held to-morrow at St. Martin's-hall, to protest against the usurpation of the privileges of the Commons, proposed by Lord Monteagle and Lord Derby, in their motion to retain the paper duties by the authority of the House of Lords, indepen dent of the Hoase of Commons and the Crown. The Times contrasts the appointments to the two vacant colonelcies, in last night's Gazette, one of the general officers appointed being Inglis, the defender of Lucknow, and the other, Major-General the Hon. harles Grey, who has never had the advantage of any more distinguished service than is seen in Hyde Park of at Windsor, as equerry to the Queen. BANKRUPTCIES IN FOUR MONTHS.— In the four months ending the 30th ult., 322 bankruptcies were gazetted in England. Of these 14 took place in the Liverpool district, 12 in the Manchester, 65 in the Bir mingham, 38 in the Leeds, 29 in the Bristol, 17 in the Exeter, 10 in the Newcastle, and 137 in the London. This total of 322 would give an aggregate of 966 for the current year, while in 1859 the number gazetted was COLLISION ON THE EDINBURGH, PERTH, AND DUNDEE RAILWAY.—On Tuesday, about half-past twelve o'clock, a serious collision took place on this line at the goods station at Kirkcaldy. It appears that a train with trucks filled with lime was proceeding at a slow pace from the north, and was succeeded by another train conveying cattle and sheep, but travelling at a greater speed, when the latter ran into the former, causing a collision of a most disastrous description, fortunately, however, without the sacrifice of human life. Several of the trucks were thrown into the air, others were driven across to the north side of the rails, while a number were overturned on the top of each other, and smashed to splinters. The rails were torn up, and the engine and tender considerably damaged. The engineer had one of his arms brcketi. One sheep was killed, and several cattle were much injured. Other descriptions of goods were strewn about in all directions. For some time traffic was at a standstill, the south part of the line being completely blocked up. ATTEMPTED MURDER OF A MAN BY HIS SWEETHEART. —On Wednesday, before the Birmingham magistrates, a respectably-dressed young woman, named Mary Turner, was charged with having, on the previous evening, shot at Wm. White, fendermaker, Barn-street, with intent to murder him. The case was a very sad one. White, it seemed, had " kept company" with - the prisoner for eighteen months, and had, about Christmas last, under promise of marriage, seduced her. A few weeks back, however, he told her he did not think he should marry her, and justified his determination by a most disgusting allegation, involvirig• an imputation on her character, which she p L-sionately denitd at the time, and which there is now every reason to believe was untrue. She then purchased a pistol, powder, and shot, and declared she would shoot him, but White pacified her, and their intercourse continued to be tolerably friendly in its character. On Tuesday night, however, he told her that he thought he should be married to another girl in alma weeks. Shortly after wards, while be was in the yard adjoining his lodgings, the poor girl rushed upon him and fired a pistol she had in her hand, the charge lodging in his left side. Owing to the interposition of the ribs, the wound did not prove a serious one, though a surgeon extracted forty or fifty shots from under the skin. OR being charged with the attempted murder, the young woman said, " I have done it, and will do it again, if I get fifteen years for it." From the evidence of the woman with whom the prisoner lodged, it appeared that White had occasionally beaten the girl and behaved to her with great cruelty. She was described as well conducted and industrious, and her behaviour in court, as compared with the callous indifference of the fellow who had ruined ber, excited the sympathy of all. The bench committed her for trial at the assizes, and she was removed from tne uocx in It tainting state: A STRANGE RAILWAY PARCEL—A dray was driven to the office of Adams's Express Company, Cherry street, and a large dry-goods box rolled out up.m the pavement. The box was addressed Mrs. Margaret M. Thompson, care of Levin Coffin, Cincinnati, Ohio." no driver stated that he was ordered to deliver it to the agent of the company, and -request him to have it for warded as addressed without delay. He then collected the drayage, and informed the agent that the person sens ing it would call round; pay carriage, and get a receipt. The weight of the box was 265 lb. The driver of the dray—or of the horse attached to the dray—then very innocently remarked, " Master, dat's de curiosest box I ever saw ; for every time I roll it over the heavy side come down." The agent thought it a curious box too; : but time Was pressing, and. he sent it down to the depot of the Lpuisville and Nashville Railroad, whence it departed on .the first train. What could it contain ? *What had Mrs.' Thompson been getting in Nashville ? Who could she be ? . And who was Mr. Coffin ? The swift-winged express did not wait to ask these questions. Tt bore the 'curious box along towards its destination, and in due time landed it at Leuisville. Here it was hastened over to Jeffersonville and hurried on to Seymour. At Seymour another change of cars was necessary, and as the box was hastily rolled from the Jeffersonville to the Cincinnati and . St. Louis train, the top accidentally came off, and out popped— what? For the life of you you couldn't guess. A startled crowd gathered round to see, and, to their sur prise, it turned oat to be a full-grown negro man! Here was a discovery in which there was something of the serious aid a little more of the ludicrous. The negro perspired hugely—his eyes rolled up and down like one nearing the gate of . the hereafter—but, the fresh air soon revived him. In changing the box from the Louisville to the Jeffersonville cars it had been turned up so that he was head downward, and thus he made the trip from Jeffersonville to Seymour, nearly fifty miles. But for the mishap at Seymour in a few hours he might have been delivered in Cincinnati, probably to be buried—probably to take a further trip on the underground railroad Canadaward. The negro Was taken back to Louisville. He belongs to Mr. Newton M'Clure, of this-city, and was shipped by a free negro named Nathan James. -Whether James had any accomplices or not we are not informed. The matter will be thoroughly sifted; and we suspect some agent of the negro stealers will be found to have had a, hand in t.—.2lrcisliville (enn.) Patriot. The latest edition. Just published.
