He was several times in pot. and in order to reclaim him from his ev:l ways he gave him £4O recently, and set him up in trade; but he soon got rid of that, and because he would not stand more money, he came to his shop and annoyed him very much, and threa'ened to murder him. The story told by the prisoner was as f Bows : —Tn 1814, he said, my father was tried before Ju;lge Telford for poisoning my mother; ha was in the cell with the murderer Delman.

A man from the Pheasant Inn stables, stated that the prisoner took the horse away, saying he wanted to show it to a gentleman, and would bring the animal back, but he did not do so. In reply to Mr. Goodere the witness said he thought the prisoner and prosecutor ware partners, and Mr. Godfrey, who bought the horse, said the same thing. He saw them sell horses', together in fairs in England. Mr. Goodere : The horse is a regular screw ?- Witness : Yes, and has all the bad qualities that a horse could possibly have. (Laughter.) Mr. Block : And y t you bought him? Yes, and would buy another like him now Mr. Black : You are an inter prising fellow. Mr. Cihodere said there °held be no doubt that the parties were partners. Mr. Black said there was every doubt about it (Here a " horse" discussion took place, amidst much laughter, after which) the prosecutor was called and examined, and his Flamers caused immense laughter. He said the prisoner swore he would cut some ones throat with a spring knife, and he got aft aid of him. At the conclusion of some "fun," his worship decided on sending the prisoner to trial. CRAMS OF MANSLAuGHTLE —John Delany, was brought np on a charge of having caused the death of Michael Lyons, in Marybone. It may be remembered that last week, the prisoner was remanded until a post mortem examination of the body of the deceased could be made, in.the meantime, a coroner's inquest was held on the body, and two snrgeonn who made the s xaminatioa, swore that death was the result 'of dise ase of the lungs, yet the coroner's jury, in the face of that evidence, returned a verdict of Manslatighter against the prisoner. A coroner's warrant was then issued for the committal of the prisoner, but he could not be taken under it until he was again brought before the magistrates. When brought up yester day, one of the surgeons repsated his. evidence, and Mr. Mansfield at once discharged him. However, he wao taken under the coroner's warrant and committed. COUNTY COURT.-YESTERDAY. BIEPORZ J. POLLOCK; MCI., JUDGE; BUYING GOODS HYMN SAMPLE —.-MAIN V. M'Costononanz —By this action the plaintiff, Mr. Main, sought to recover of the defendant, Mr. M Corgeodale, the extensive whole sale stationer of this. town, the sum of £9 159. lid., the balance of an account for some waste purchased by the latter , f the fora:er. Mr Rime appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Denson, barrister, for the defendant. In the month of June last the defendant purchased of the plaintiff a quantity of cotton w, ste, for the purpose of making it into paper. It was bought by sample, and was forwarded to the defendam'a factory, and 4:20 was paid on ac count, but it was subsequently tined that the watts was not in sec )rdance wi , h the sample, and £lO 18s. 7d. wan, however. paid into court. On the 6rh of August, the defendant cffsred to return the waste, but declined to pay the carrlsge ; hence that offer was refused, and the pre sent action was brought. For the defendant, Mr. Denson contended that, as the bulk of the goods did not correspond with the sample, he had a right to u-e them, and pay the value of them—irrespective of the contract made in the first instance ; and cited a number of cases to prove that such was the law. Haviug argued the point at very considerable length, and called a witness to prove the value of the waste, and the conver sations • that had taken piece on the subject, his Honour, without calling upon Mr. Hime to reply, said he should, •as at present advised, give judgment for the plaintiff, but should take time to look over the case, and if be saw any reason, after that, to alter his opinion, he be should call on Mr. Hime to reply, and then the case, which was one of considerable importance to the commercial community, coald be decided in a superior Court. He dissented entirely from the view that Mr. Demean had taken of the case, which was, that a person, after Pny length of time, might say that the coods well not according to sample, and then, when the action was bernght, claim a right to repudiate the contract - , and say that he would only pay the value of then. He would give judgment on tho 6th of the nez' month.

Late on Friday, the dead body of a boy was found in a field near the forest, under circumstances which left nodonbt that a most horrible, and, at the same time, mysterious murder had been committee. The murdered boy was the son of Mr. Atkinson, machine holder, residing at Kenil worth -terrace, Raleigh-street, and on Thursday evening, on returning from school, he left home with a playfellow, about two years younger, and they strayed towards the Arboretum. About six o'clock they were playing near the Aboretum Gates, - when a man, of midile age and stature, with curling red bunchy hair on each side his head, accosted the children, and asked the smaller one (not the deceased) to show him the road to Basford and he would give him ten shillings. The little fellow said he did not know the road, but the murdered boy most unwittingly said to the fellow, " I do." The wretch made the same offer to him, if he would go with him and show hittlit ; and, they went away together up Waverley-street, leaving the other boy at the Arboretum Gates; and that was the last that was seen of the boy alive. About six o'clock on Friday night, a number of boys• were playing on the Forest, and one of them, either to recover a cricket ball or to get some blackberries, got over a hedge into an adjoining field,' just within the limits of the narish of Lenton, and was horrified to see the body of a bay under the hedge. He gave . an alarm, and the body on examination, was found to bear marks of compression on the neck, and from the appearance of the month and nostrils, the boy mutt hav3 been strangled. There were also marks of violence on one side of the body as though it had been knelt upon. The lad's boots were taken o 1 his feet, and it is to be supposed that for the purpose of stealing iheso the murder was committed. The police are making every exertion fur the apprehension of the supposed murderer. SHOCKING COAL-PTT ACCI DE NT NEAT MANCH ES rER. THE NORTHERN TIMES.- - -LIVERPOOL, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1857. FOUR LrVE3 LIST. Oi Fri lay night, a serious calamity occurred at the New Pit, Bradford-road, near Phi'ips Park, which resulted in the instantaneous death of four p-rsons. The pit is the joint property of Mr. Johnson (proprietor of the iron works where the boiler explesion took place on the same day) and Mr. Livsev. Tee four victims were engaged in the pit, laying the bricks round the - shaftin7, which had been sunk 146 yards. This shaft is fur feet two inches wide, and it apneara when ;he men come to whit is called a ring of bricks, which is the bottom &iv, they then remove the earth or rock under it, and " pin up" with more bricks They had performei what is called the "plucking,' but foolishly carrried it down a distance of two yards, leaving nothing to support the bricks above. At half-past eight o'clock the whole of the bricks—about fi!'ty tons weight—fell in, and covered the men at the bolona of the shaft. A quantity of ashes and earth also fell in, and it is estimated that there is a weight of more than 100 tons over the bodies. It is calculated that the bodies will not be recovered for a fortnight at least, as the shaft will have to be.relaid with bricks before the fallen mass can he safely removed. Yesterday, a man named Armstrong, who went down the pit for a short time, was injured by the falling of some of the earth from the side of the pit. It will be understood that the work of clearing the pit will be a difficult operation, when we state that it is now making 1.600 gallons of water per hour. The persona who have list their lives are—Henry Seddon, of Leigh, near Wigan, aged 27, married, with three chil dren ; James Weirs, of Bradford. aged 19, unmarried Henry Appleton, of Wigas, aged 16 ; John Clayburn, of Butler-street, Bradford--gad, aged 17, married, and one child. The man in charge of the work was Seddon, and he had been cautioned an hour before the fatal occurrence of the extreme risk he was undergoing by plucking so large a space without the precautionary steps of filling up with bricks as he proceeded.

W. and H. Laird of Liverpool, it appears that the total coal exports from the United Kingdom, during the month of August amonn'ed to 613,834 tons against 625,389 tons in August, 1856, showing a decrease on the present year of 11.555 tent. The northern ports exported 383.846 tons, the Yorkshire ports I8,9:;3 tons, Liverpool 49 875 terv, the Scotch ports 52,306 tons, and the Severn ports 107.910 tons. WHAT CONSTITUTES SUNDAY TRADING ? —At the Leeds Court House, on Saturday, a , pboasaraphic Retie, named AmosLembert, came up to receive ,ludgment for practising his calling as as artist on the Sibbetheitty.—lt was con tended, for the defence, that a photographist was not an "artificer" within the rn aning of the alt of parliament. The Leeds magi,tratee took the opinion of Thomas Flower Ellis, Esq., recorder of Leeds, on this point.; and that gentleman, in the c arse of a lengthy opinion, stated that his opinion was that the case was within the meaning of the statute 9th Charles IL, c. 7, , which enacts " 7 h it no tradesman, artificer, workman, labourer, or any other per- - gen whatsoever, *shall follow any worldly labour, business, or work of their ordinary calling on the Sabbath." The court decided, ripen this opinioe, that Lambert had broken the act referred to, and fined h'm 55., including costs.

It is certainly not jas'ified by the facts of which authentic inteligence has been received by the present mail, and still leaves so by the two welt accredited rumours now in circulation. P,rhaps the most painful duty of a jeurn dies' is that which compels him to become a prophet of evil, mil to dash to the ground pleasurable hopes and anticia!ionS". Such, nob:to:Ay, is our own positi,,n at this moment. We cannot participate in the triumphant sheets of our Bombay c ,tempor Irkes.

MYSTERIOUS DEATHS BY DB , WNING —At ha'f-past seven e'c'ock on Friday morning, the police on dn'y at Lance- Lid Quay plcked up the bodies of two men whet hid been drowned in the river. The dee aced we e id. ntified as Richard Parker, captain of the Rose, a steamer plying between this port and Limerick, and Thomas Magee. a seaman belonging to the same ves=el. Tae facts, es nearly as we have been able to c.dlect them, are these :—Mr. Parker spent the evening of Wednesday last with a f lend in the city, from whose place he deported about eleven o'clock ; for tke purpose of returning to pass the night on board the Rf;S , , which was lying nearly mi 1-stream at the time. It wield seem that about half past &even, on arriv ing at Lance field Quay, just opposite where his vessel was moo'cd, he hailed her, and Thomas Magee, the watchman nn board, put out the small boat and sinned alongside the Padetow steamer that lay alongside the (pay side. Some of the crew, who had been at the Theatre, reached the quay abent helf-past twe'v ena hailed for a boat to go on beard the Rose. The engineer rep'ied to their hail by telling them that Magee bed t: ken the b-a to feel the captain, and te ld them to look whet' e he hid gone tee They varched, but o old sr e no trace of Magee, the captain. or the b , at. Some :wo hours later the boat was recovered empty, drifting down the river, but neither the captain nor Magee cou'd be disc tvered, until their dead bodes were found yesterday. It is surmised that Capt. Parker, in creasing from the P alstow steamer to the small boat, fell into the water, and Magee, in trting to retcue him, fell in also, and neither being able to swim, they wee.- dreweed, Dr. Roberson, who exanfne d the bodes, states that the y present no appearance like that occasioned ba a violent death. Both were natives of Irelend.—Glasgew Mail. At LEWIS ft CO If PANY'S, Ranelagh-stt eet. BOYS are CLOTHED from the Ages of Six to Twenty Yeats. CHARGE OF KMBEZZLBMENT AGAINST THE AGENT OF A LINCOLNSHIRE BANKING 'COMPANY. • Considerable excitement was produced at Spi ,on Monday last, on its becoming known that a warrant bad been granted sgairst Mr. Thos. Wright, agent of the above company at Wai• fleet, on a charge of having embezzled upwards of £3,000, the property of the company. The execution of the warrant was entrusted to Superintendent Chambers, who appehended Mr. Wright at his own house the same evening, and on Tues lay morning brought him to Spil,by. The magistrates assemtled at the cessions house, at 12 o'clock, and ihe prisoner was placed at the bar. On the beach were the Rem Thos, H. Rawr•sley and Thos, Holloway, and John Wright, and Sat'. Hairhy, Esqrs. Mr. Orlando E Imonfla, the regi , tered public officer of the company, said the prisoner was the agent at Willa et of that branch of the Stamford, Spalding, and Boston Bank. He had held that office beteeen 24 and 25 years. He (Mr. Edmonds) first perceived a deficiency in his accounts on Sitnrday last. Tie to that time he had performed his deities in a matner which was perfectly I satisfactory. Oa that evening witness was at Wainfleet. He inspected the accounts, and found a deficiency of £3,021 9s 9d. He asked the prisoner where the money was, and he said he could not give any information where, when, or how the money had gone. He admitted he had abstracted it, but could no' tell to what u - e he had applied it. When again asked what be had done with the money ho said " I cense t tell." Witness sail, "It is not possi• ble but that you should know what you have dine with so large a sum," and he again said, "I do sot know." Be fore the examination of beoks commenced he admitted that he had taken the/ money. Prisoner—l admitted, in the first instancy', that I had a deficiency of about £3,000. Witness—That is correct ; and that admission led to the examination of the books and cash, which brou:ht out the exact deficiency of £3 021 9s. 9 1 . The last auditing at Wainfleet took place on the 29th of September, 1855. Then all was pnfectly regular; the cash in hand tallied with the ace tun's, and all was satisfactory ; but though there had since b. ea no inspection cf his cash balane., the prisoner had ftirnished a weekly statement of his transac tions, which, as would be shown by Me. Barney, had been reedarly checked at Boston, and found correct. Mr. Thee. Barney, manager of the Beaton branch of the bank, said it was Mr. Wright'a du'y to send to him every week an account of the transactions of the Baia at Wainfleet. He usually brought the account to him at Spilsby on a Mon day. It was made up to the end of the proceeding week, and contained the amount of the each le thince. On the 7ch of this month lie received the account for the week ending en the sh, which he produced. It showed a cash balance of £3,476 34. 43. On the 12 hhe with Mr. Ed monds inspected the cash at Wainfleet, and found only £793 15s, which, with the transactioss of the week, left a deflci=ncy of £3,021 9.. 91. On that afternoon himself and Mr. Edmonds called on Mr. Wright and told him they would look in again in the evening to see his cash. On cailieg again for that purpose, Mr. Wright's son opened the door, and said his faller wished to • speak to him (Mr Butte)) five minutes privately. On th:s he fo'lnwed the son into the Bank, where Mr. Wright was, and he said, " 1 am deficient in my accounts nearly £3,000. Witness s id, "Nonsense, it cannot be so ;" but he again said such was the case, and witness communicated the fact to Mr. Edmoedse and then the cenversation took place which Mr. E . moods had detailed. This being all the evidence the magistrates retired, and after being absent some time, returned into court, and the chairman addressing the prisoner, said they had determined on committing him to Lincoln for trial at the next ess:zes. He then gave the usual caution, and the prisoner said " I altnit baying taken the amotint of money which eppears in the accaunt in my handwriting." He was then formally committed. — Stamford Mercury. SERIOUS CHARGE AGAINST A SOLICITOR. At the Mansion House, on Friday, John Barry, described as a solicitor, of 4, Stanley-terrace, R)therhithe, was brought up by 'Liggett, detective, on a warrant signed by the Lord Mayor, charged with uttering a bill of exchange for £67 10 , , with a forged acceptance, purporting to be signed by George Bell, with intent to defraud George Bracher, tailor, 2, C .pthall-court, Old Broad-street. Mr. Jones (from Mr. Lee's, Bucklersbury), attended for the prosecution, and stated that he should only be able to give sufficient evidence to justify him in askieg for a remand, as the party whoss nacre was alleged to have been forged w is absent from town, &though he (Mr. Jones) held a letter in his hand, in which that gentleman said the acceptance was a fo-gery. The prisoner said he also wished for a remand, as he was only arres'el the previous night, and hid not had time to prepare his defence. The Lord Mayor said it would be better to go briefly into the else. Mr. George Wellington Bracher: I reside at 2, Copthar court, and the prisoner has an office in my house! A few days 'after the date of the bill produced, I received it from the prisoner. It is fair £fi7 10s, and is drawn by the p-isrmer, and it parp - r s to be accepted by Mr. George Bell, 13, Georgeeereet, Mansion Kruse-street. It was made payable three months after date. The prisoner owed me money, and I gave him other money for the bill. The bill was returned to me on becoming due, and I have made inquiries as to the arc( ptance hereof. If the prisoner is remanded, I believe I shall be able to prove that the acceptance to that bill is a forgery. Mr. Jones then asked for a remand. The prisoner wished the remand to bi for a week, as he should require fully th it time to get up his defence. He had come up directly he heard of his being wanted, although he had expected Mr. Bracher would proceed civilly in the matter. Huggett (detectiv -) wished the remand to be fn. a week, as he had met with an ac :Pent while apprehending the prisoner. Mr. Goodman, chief clerk : Where did von find him ? Hugge t : He was brought to me by another officer, who found him in his back yard in the water butt. The prisciner was then remanded. A CROSSING SWEEPER'S COMPLAINT. At the Marlborough-str et Police court, on Friday, just as the magistrate was about to quit the bench, a Wily dressed old Irishwoman, groaning under some weighty grievance, got into the witness box, and introducing her self as " crossing sweeper to the nobility and gentry of Grosvenor-sqoare," humbly begged magisterial attention to her care. Having grown too old for service she had, under the patronage .and influence of "her ladyship's banner the Counte4s of Galway," established a crossing in Grosvenor-square, oanl tor some years, with the help of her noble patrons, and by the lab mr of her broom, she had contrived to maintain herself creditably. Same months ago title was atta led with a swelling in the back which having turned to a " tombstone" she was obliged to go into the hoipital to have it cut out. A few days ago, being .disaharged cured, she proceeded to resume her oublia duties in Grosvenor-squsre, the head' butlar of Lady Sandwich promising to start her again in business with a new broom. When she made her way that morning to Grosvenor Fqnare, she found the " bandy-!egged ould vagabond, Pat hi irphy," had left his own loc ility, at the other side e.f the crt rre, and had taken possession of her "crossing;" in addition to whic'l he was " undermining her karaeter " by giving out that "she'd got three months in quod for cit skinni lg." Would the magistrate send a constable to tell Pat Murphy to keep to his own shop ? 'vfr. Peadoc: I don't very ivql see that I can do that. App'icant : Me natn.'s Norry Maal, and I'm a pleseman's wid iy, yer wutchip. Mr. B:adon : Wel', then, go to the ruperintendan', at the station-house, and tell your story — I dare say he will find a wa..! to assist you. Tae olese-. man's widdy dripped a clurtsev, and sating, "It w.s ' ha' d cheese' at her time of life to be tu-ned out of her living without a wid your lave or by your lave," let% the court.

We had prayer yestet day and to-day ;we take the sacrament together ; and may God bless her and them in this world. My dear fellow, I have not neglected my prayers since I have been conthmed, and if God will accept them, I hope to be happy La the next world. But it seems to me like a dream, and I think the reason is, that I am not guilty of the crime. This God knows. You wish to know boa I am. At sometimes I am ready to burst with grief, and there is times that lam quite resigned to my fate. I think I should have died had not Mrs. Rogers been here, but, poor thing, she ht.s kept up my fall;ng heart. The officers and governor have been very kind to me, more than auy man could expect, and lam very thankful to them for their kindness. 1 have had more comfort than ever I thought to obtain, but God is good. I have another k'nl triend, and that is the chaplain; ho is very kind; bola him and the governor have been more than I can say. I lu pe the Lord will bless them for their kindness to me and my poor wife and children. You must consider that I am in this gaol a condemned prisoner, and death is my fate al'hough not guilty of the crime charged. Yea' say in yours that there has been a memorial from Livorpoo', but that I sent myself, and the reply was, the jury found me guilty, and I must suffer. My lawyer went to London and saw Sir George Grey, and laid all things before him, and they said as the jury had found me guilty I must suffer deatli, so God receive my poor sou'. I must conelu le. By the time you get this I shah be no more. lam thankful they have spared the lives of my poor mates. So nom, my dear fellow, God bless you, and all your family, as this is my last letter in this world ; but I hope to meet you in the world to come, where no person can swear anybody's life away. But I forgive them (as I hope to be forgiven myseif). So good-bye, and the Almighty be with you.—l remain, my dear fellov, yours truly, not guilty, H. ROGERS. MRS. ROGERS.

CUTTING Coaxs BY MACIIINERY.—In the now, or Howell's, pal ent for cutting cnks, the m weal - ant is hori zontal and rotatory, and works with egad economy and accuracy, turning oat 144 perf,ctly cut corks every minute, or 36.400 daily of 10 hours. As the wheel goes round, the four knives are attenled by four girls or boys. whose duty is }Merely to feed the machine, whilst the finished cork falls down a spout to the sorters underneath, and we should think it impossible that corks could be cut with greata precision. The Co. k Company, which is fully incorporated, and half of whose shares are already d7spord of, have got a highly respectable and iuflneutial board of directors, who propose erecting five or six additional machines in their new premises, by which they will be enabled to manufacture half a million corks per day, which is about half the con sumption of Lonitn alone; and the saving, we understand, by using this patent, instead of hand cutting, will exceed £30,000 per annum in favour of the cor company.

PANCRAS WORK 'HOUSE.—During the last few days a select committee of investigation of the director; of the /nor of St. Pancras has been sitting at St. Per etas workhouse. It is not deemed prudent at present to give publicity to the disclosures made before the ccnarnittee of, investigation, but sufficient has transpired to prove that a system of robbery and plunder has been going on, which will amount, it is be lieved, to upwards of £2,000 par annum. Indeed, the plunder his been carried out ander a regal ,ray organised system, in which some officials as well -as Lane inmates of the workhouse are concerned ; and it is reported that one of the latter class upon interrogation has confessed that the position in which he was placed enabled him to crake upward; of three guineas per week. It is stated that meat, butter, cheese, tea, rice, barley, oatmeal, and ether stores have gone out of the house and passed the warkaonse gate is presumed empty milk cans, and in various o her ways; and there is reason to believe that even tradesmen out of door; hare been concerned in these disreputable ‘r trsacions.—Observer.

" Woe unto that giveth his neighbour drink, that pnttest thy bottle to him and makest him drunken."—lsabak. ii. 15. [Continued from 17th September] For the encmragement of children to sign the pledge, I will state two circumstances with which I am acquainted. One dlr a Navvie was going into a public house with his little boy in his bard, the I.ttle fellow had been at a temperance meeting with his mother, and had heard the speakers describe the character of public houses, cried out, "oh, father, don't go into that bad place." The father took the boy into his arms, and determined to go in, when the child begun to cry, and a hot tear from the little weeping eye ell upon the father's hand—it plerccd his heart, conviction seized him that it would be wrong to go in, he turned upon his heel, went home, told his wife, she advised him to go to a neighbour's and sign the pledge, he did so, and four years have elapsed since he crossed the threshold of a pubic house. One Saturday evening I went into a hairdresser's shop in Great Homer-street, in this town, where sat a man with his arm round a little child about three years of age, which stood on the tame form the man was sitting on. Shortly a companion of his came in, and accosted him thus, "Jack, thou. was blind drunk last night." `r he moment the word drunk was uttered the chill sprung to its father's neck with its little arms, exclaiming, " don't get drunk again, daddy, and lick mammy, and I'll give you a kiss " The father's heart iyas touched with the appeal, he looked at me wi h a convicted gaze. I left, folowed by the man, and, with the tea's tolling down his cheeks, he - asked me What he should do, I told him to sign the pledge, and instead of spending the Sabbath day in acts of de secration attend the House of God. He did so, and that drunken carter can now be seen about the docks with his own team, an I heard, not only advocating the great cause of temperance, but direct ng poor sinners to floe from the wrath to contr. Oh, if stroig drinks were taken away the vilest drunkard that crawls upon the earth, disfiguring the fair facs of creation, would become as sober as tile Angels of Heaven. Let not the drink create the desire' and the desire will not exist. It is the drink( ng customs of society and not man's nature that produce intemperance. Iho passion for fermented drink is not instinctive. A rare acci dent taught some sleepless Arabian chemist torturing substances alter substances in Li crucible. and alembics how t extract the fierce liquid fire from the vegeta' le drink, and thus be brought up as it were, from the bott ,m of Paudoras' box that alcohol, which, like a ,me modern St. Dominic has since inflicted so many dire evils upon the human race. They exhilarate, they enliven, they stimulate, and exalt the men'al powers. Some persons they stupify, some they convert into irritable savages, some int, drivelling idiots, and some into ne re pugnacious animals. All, if long and largely used, they brutalize, prostrate, and in the end carry to an untimely grave. l".). ut more wonderful, then;thwe poisolons and destructive effects, is the passion for indulging in them which these liquors awaken in a large proportion of my fellow countrymen and countrywomen. The irre sistable love for them with which the unfortunate vic inns are smitten —the fascinating infi•rence by, which they are charmed. the will becomes alrsolu:ely spall bound through the action of alcohol on the bodies of some, and reason is dethroned in others, where it formerly evercisel char and und"sputed sway. It is from this fascinating pow.r that the danger of using them principally arises. The p'nerb-line of selfishness is too contracted to explore the depths of tem; erance principles, and bring up their elevating; enobling, and benign agoncies. Th r total abstaining, christian philanthroph'st, and patrio', must, therefore, rem ,ve the obstruction caused by the drinking customs of the country, that free play may be given to those impeded age•icies of human freedom and advancement, then will drunkards be rescued from waves, peril, storm, the howling of a tem pest of drunk rule's; and landed safely in the heaven of temperance where all is tranquility and peace. As from Ararat the christian contemplates a dismantled and de. popu , at,cl world, so as we ascend the mountain crags of intemper ance does the blackness of dar.sness of the panorama bonnie more and more intense; or as we descen i the ravine of drunkenness does the pestilential atmosphere we inhale become mors and more Infectious, a , :d thus it is with the drinking customs of the age. The more we familiarise and associate ourselves wit's the drinking custom Of socie y, the ;pester is the danger of contagion—inveterate drinkers r ever lackinl ingenuity or stratagems in the allurement of their victims and the accomplshment of their base deigns. This feet is affirmed by the evi "ence of Parliamentary committees. A Pal liamentary report, at page :411, states that at an extensive printing establishment in Scotland a spectator observed the following ingenious device to get whiskey into th 3 mill. Stan Nag at the mill head or brooh, which was deep and rapid, he observed at a short distance a little girl fasten a stone to a string and throw it across to anoth r t ie at the o her side, who disentangled the stone and sub stituted a battle : the string was then drawn back again, and thebat tle placed under the girl's garments; she than turned to the left, where might be se , n a scout standing at the door of the women's apartment of the mill, holding up a sties with a white rag at the end of it : so soon as the white rag was remove 1 and a red one substi uted, the girl snide a bolt with ne deadly poison, and accomplished a lcdgment of her cargo in the women's room. The report states further that it was ascertained that the publican who supplied the intoxicating drink had as mach as 423 against a aing'e girl_under 20 years of age for spirits. Pub leans who thus live on the denaralisation of the community; ought to be C313:11 elled to di-gorge ;heir ill—gotten gains in bearing the consequences of the drinking customs. They are not a whit better than the highwayman, who, after robbing a man of his money , watch, and stripdiag him, vary gravely said, "Is it not a mer c y I h ave let 3 ou c ff with your life." Another Parliamentary re, ort states that at a straw bonnet mann a ctory in London, where the e were3o young females employed, it was customary eta certain hour of every day for one of them to go round and collect one penny from each, with which gin was purchased, and distributed among them in equ port'ons with a measure p - ovided for the urpase, and afterwards to burn a piece of brown raper to take away the smell. That out of this number there was only one who protested against thy practice; this pions female remonstrated with the rest oa the impropriety of such conduct, reminding them of the evils of drunkennesr, and suggested the propriety of applying the money so astefu ly.expen it dto some re' igious or charitable purpose, but in vain, they continued in their drunken course, which resulted, the sane report states, In 20 cat of the 30 becoming prostitutes. The female who protes'ed a2ainet the practice having visited two of them in the penitentiary, who admitted that they acquired the halm of drunkenness through the custom of hav'nr the gin brought into the workroom. Intoxicating drink is ill adapted for woman; for her with whom I have been taught to associate, all that is pure, all that is holy, all that is love:y, in social life; for her whose gent!e remon strance, whose son hiag influence, whose cheerful smile, and whose tender care has done so much to reclaim, rough and stubborn man, to mitigate his sorro ti or, to lighten up his brow, and milt his heart into tenderness and love. Intoxicating drink is ill adapted for the mothers of a future generation, 'whose pecu iar duty and priviege it is to train op the young in the paths of religion and virtue, and who e highest and holiest aim should be to cast a bright had radiant halo around the domestic circle. The " National Temperance Advocate and Herald," Vol. 4, No. 6, give a 3ingular acciunt of a chi of working men in connexion with pit 5, Bade% near Oldbury, governed by, the folio ring extraordinary laws : REV° I. Every member labouring in pit 5, shall serve alternatey the office of " poorer out of lee," or forfeit one pint of ale, and each with his i roper Qta , tity, or Welt one glass of ale. Rule 2.—Any person belonging to this pit, swearing, or tel log wilful lies, or wing bad language, shall forfeit half a pint of ale. little 3.—Any person belonging to this society, fighting, or chat longing to fight, shag forfeit one pint of a'e. Rule 4. %ny person sitting down to dinner covered, shall forfeit a glass of ale. Rule s_—Any person who can read the Scriptures, and neglect: to do so daily, Chill forfeit one glass of a'e. Rule 6.—Any member who reuses to attend when the Scriptures are being real, shall forfeit one vr..el,'s ale. Rule 7.—Every member shall reverently kneel when prayer is offered no, or forfeit one pint of ale. Rule B.—Any member sleeping or not keeping silence when prayer is offered up, shall for:eit one pint of ale. Here is a society of men positively throwing turpentine on the flame to :exti , ,guisq it. If a member uses improper language he is compelled to gave that, that sets on a blast s of firs, toe blasphemy of hell ; and if a member fights he is posit ve'y compelled to make the who'e society 213 pagnae'ons as himself, by tr.; .ting them to that which excites the combative propensities of men to an nnrestrainabie degree. The s:cond report of the. Poor Law Commissioners. speaking of these very men, at Mules, states that they live in horrible dwellings, their cooking is disgusting, they are clothed in rags,the little bedd!ng they have is dirt and filth itself, and the atmosphere they inha'e is stagnant and putrid, that they are degraded drunkards, thus verifying the declaration of Dr. Oliver Goldsmith —" In all my travels, in town, village, and hamlet, I never saw a place yet where the miseries of the people were not in proportion to the facilities afforded them for ob taining intoxicating drink."
