TOWN COUNCIL MEETING.

Yesterday (Monday) morning • Quarterly Meeting of
the oorporation of this borough was held in the Council
Chamber. About 12 o'clock his worship the Mayor,
William Manfield, Esq., took the chair ; and there were
present Councillors Devenish, Andrews, Garland,
Hodges, Lock, Bishop, Curme, Ensor, and Galpin.
The TOWN CLERK read the minutes of the proceed-
ings of the last meeting of the Council, which were
confirmed.
THE BOROUGH POLICE.

The HAvon said the first business was to receive a
report from the Watch Committee as to the present
police force of the borough, and the making a watch
rate in order to raise the police expenses of the current
year. His worship called on
The Towlr CLEM who read a report to the effect
that the committee had considered the suggestions of
the Home Office for the improvement of the borough
police, the efficiency of which body it was manifest to all
might be much augmented ; but to adopt the recom-
mendations would entail the imposition of the maxi-
mum rate of Bd. in the pound on the rateable property
of the borough, which would realize about ON. This
rate the committee recommended, and they likewise
advised the Council at once to resolve themselves into a
committee for the purpose of securing an efficient police
form and to entitle the corporation to the Government
drawback. The rate last year was 411 in the pound.
The report was received and entered on the minutes.
Mr. LOCK feared that the time had come when tho
Council must do that which he had no doubt would be
unpleasant, but which must be done, namely—take a
step that would have the effect of discharging some
members of the present police force. When Captain
Willis, the Government Inspector of pollee, attended
last year, he stated that two or three of the borough

to the Government drawback of one fourth. Every-
thing should be done to lower the rates, and also to put
the -force into that efficient state which would At the
Council to receive the drawback. He, therefore, moved—
That the police force be placed on the footing recom-
mended by Captain Willis, as near is the fend, of the
Town Council will admit of, and that the Town Council
proceed at once to carry those rules into effect. And,
further—That the future force do 'consist of one super-
intendent, one sergeant, and three or four constables, as
the Watch Committee may from time to time think
necessary.
The MAYOR suggested that the number of constables
should be left to the consideration of the committee.

After some conversation,
Mr. GARLAND moved, and Mr. HODGES seconded,
That the report be received, and the further consideri.
tion of it be considered at a meeting of the whole
Council in oommittee, and the Mayor be requested to
call such meeting on Monday next, at eleven. The
resolution passed, and the matter dropped.

FATAL BOAT ACCIDENT AT PLYMOIITH.-011
Friday morning between 8 and 9 o'clock, a water.
man's boat from Devouport was swamped in the
Sound, with fourteen persons in her; of these, one
waterman and, it is said, six or seven of the crew of
the Rtinown are drowned. When about 500 yards
from the Renown, Lieutenant Sterne, observed the
men bailing with their hats, and the Brunswick
cutter being alongside was sent immediately to their
assistance, quickly followed by the Renown 'ii gig and
jolly-boat. The men had in the meantime got on
the thwarts and waved for help until the boat went
down under them. The cutter rescued eight seamen
and one waterman, the gig a seaman, and a passing
boat picked up the other waterman. Commander
Leithbridge was present, using every effort to save
life. The names of those nown to be drowned are
Moses Ferris, William G. Note, Albert Gartell, and
William Mansfield, all good conduct men. The fate
of a man named William Green is doubtful. The
wind was westerly with a force of five, weather
squally. None of the bodies have been recovered.

in length, was caught on Tuesday evening at Salmon
Pool, near Exeter, by Mr. Eyre Kingdon. Though
not unfrequently met with in months of the English

Exeter for very many years past. Mr. Eyre King-
don, in his very animated description of the capture,
leads us to infer that the monster was not secured
without considerable tact and exertion. Twice it
broke through the meshes of the seine, and on the
latter occasion, when attempting to effect its escape
in shallow water, it was struck with a boat-hook,
which inflicted a deep wound immediately belaw

REFORMATORY SCHOOLS IN IRELAND.—A Bill of
Serjeant Deasy, M.P., and Mr. Bagwell, M.P., provides
for the establishment of reformatory schools for the
better training of juvenile offenders in Ireland. The
Chief Secretary for Irefand, on application, may order
an inspector to report on the condition and regulations
of established reformatories, and to include them as
reformatories within the meaning of the Act. Justices
of counties and councils of towns may grant money in
aid of such schools, subject to conditions. No money
may be granted to reformatories unless certified by the
Chief Secretary, acting on the Inspector's report.
Juvenile delinquents under 16 years of age may, in
addition to the sentence passed, be sent to these schools
from a minimum of two and a staximant of live years,
and they may be then wholly or partly maintained at
the cost of the Treasury. The parents of the delin-
quents, if able, may be compelled to contribute be. a
week to the maintenance of their children in the re-
formatories, and, in default of payment, may be com-
mitted to gaol for three months. The Act is limited to
Ireland.
MR. RAMEY IN DUBLIN.—The FFEEMES'S Journal
describes the extraordinary effects of Mr. Rarey's horse-
taming system, as exhibited by him to the Lord-Lieute-
nant, the Marquis of Waterford, and a numerous party
of ladies and gentlemen of rank, subscribers and pupils
of his, in the Castle Riding-school, on Tuesday. He
seems to have excited as much curiosity and interest in
Ireland a here.

WIPE MURDER.—A man named Cubbison, who lived
at Rathfirland, county of Down, came home to his
dinner one day last week, and the repast not pleasing
him, he set upon his wife and beat her to death. He
wan immediately after arrested, and is now in the
county jail to abide his trial at the next assizes.

PANIC IN THE FLAX TRADE—In consequence of the
unfounded rumour that Lord Rome had predicted an
unusually hot and dry summer, the flax trade in Ire-
land has been seriously affected. Farmers have made up
their minds to sow less flax-seed than they would other-
wise have done; and, it appears, persist in that deter-
mination, notwithstanding the contradiction given by
his lordship to the indiscreet rumour.

MARK•LANE CORN EXCHANGE.

FRIDAY, APRIL 30.—The supply of English wheat on
sale in to-day's market, ooaatwise and by land carriage,
was limited. The trade was in a sluggish state, and
millers purchased with much caution, on former terms.
Upwards of 10,000 qrs. of foreign wheat have come to hand
this week, and most kinds moved off slowly, at Mon.
day's currency. Foreign barley sold slowly, but we
have no change to notice in value. In malt, about an
average business was doing on former terms. We had a
good demand for oats, and fine corn was the turn dearer.
Beans, peas, and flour sold at full quotations.

THE PHI AND BPOON.—March of Intellect ill
Doreet in the Nineteenth Century.—Surperstitioa
Seems at a premium in this neighbourhood. A few
day ago a man named William Latimer lost a pig by
death—the symptoms and manner of which satisfied
every sensible body in the locality that he had been,
like "Billy White's" sheep or " Villikin's Dinah,"
—" pizoned " ; but the owner having heard of a
wonderful wizard, named James Baker, of Morden,
sought his aid to solve the difficulty. Baker pro-
mised to state the cause of Chucky's demise for the
small sum of five shillings, and to produce a witch
who had caused that dire event—forthwith, and in-
duced her to walk round Latimer's dwelling three
or four times. The five shillings having been paid,
in a very short time, an old woman named Blake,
who had also been victimized by Mr. Wizard Baker.
to the tune of 17s. for attempting to relieve her
mind of something that preyed thereon, was seen
to meander round the house in due course—clescly.
by prior understanding with Baker. Latimer was
then present and the witch and wizard entered into
a soliloquy in which Baker was yclept "the Devil"
by Mrs. Blake; the latter denying the absurdity of
her knowing anything whatever of the pig's decease.
A gentleman named Mitchell, of the Kinson pot-
teries, took the matter up and sent for Baker,
avowedly to hear his art, and after great solemnity
of gestulation and extorting promises of
profound
secresy, the fearful wizard produced an old silver
spoon, which, he said, contained the magical virtue
which enabled him to work his bewitching craft.
Mr. Mitchell very properly seized the spoon (sup-
posed to have once belonged to Mrs. Blake), and in-
troduced Baker to a police constable (No. 83 Brown).
who took him before a magistrate, and his worship
committed the wizard to gaol for one month as a.
rogue and vagabond.

drawal of any endowment out of the Consolidated
Fund, doe regard being had to vested rights and in-
tereets."
Mr. WALPOLI said, if this were a new question it
would be reasonable to allow • Bill to be laid upon the
table; but as it was no new question, and as the Intro-
duction of the Bill could only afford an opportunity for
• revival of agitation, he thought it better that the ow!.
nion of the House thould be taken at ones. He won
opposed to the introduction of such a measure upon two
grounds; first, that when • great question bad been
settled by Parliament, it was not wise to disturb suck
settlement union it was clearly proved that there were
grave objections to it; and, secondly, that when Sir
Robert Peel proposed the perpetuation of this grant, he
sailed it a menage of woe to Ireland, and if the Ad
were repealed it would- be considered by the people of
Ireland as a reversal of the policy of Sir Robert Peel,
and as tantamount to a declaration of war.

other two defendants were committed for one calendar
month's hard labour.
George Tacker, of Chesilborne, labourer, WM sum-
moned by Mary Ann Parker to show cause why he

demands for all kinds of wheat of home produce ruled
heavy, at barely stationary prices. Foreign wheat—
the show of which was good—met a dull inquiry, and
some forced sales were made at a decline of fully is. per
quarter, compared with Monday. Floating cargoes
were dull. Barley was in , short supply, and good re-
quest, at very full prioes ; but malt moved off slowly,
at barely late rates. We had a steady inquiry for oats,
beans, and peas, at very full prices. In flour very
little was doing, at Monday's decline in value.
