The services on wesluesday commener4 at 11 °Walk.
by a public dediestion of the building by united
prayer. The chapel was but partially filled. The
preacher was the Rem R. Roberto, of London, one of
the tom t eloquent and impeller of the Wesleyan
preachers. The service commenced with singing
the 736th hymn (Wesley's selection) followed
by pray. r. Ti,. 132nd Puha was then read.
followed by eiaging the 128th hymn. Contrary to
general custom the rev. gentleman selected three,

to one subject. Kelm 8, sth verse, "Made a little

these them passages the rev. g. Littman allowed Bret

then . aborted to a self toonsuration of the body, the
intellect, and tbe whole man to God.
After the sermon • collection was made. The Rev.
Mr. Cooke then announced the order of the opening
services, after which the 625th hymn was sung, and the
Benediction pronounced. At one o'clock. an excellent
cold collation was served up in the sehool.emm, the
whole of the provisoes for which as well as for the tea,
I were provided by friends of the ciuse. The chair was
taken by Captain igtffebalea ILN., supported by the
Rev. .1. Keynes, Rev. J. Cooke, Mr. Jackson and other
gentlemen.
After dinner the CHAIIIXAN maid it gave him very
greet pleasure in complying with the r. quest of their
superintendent in taking the chair, and to have the op-
portunity in bang pr sent in their beautiful chspel
above them, and to lichen to Op. very excellent sermon
of Ile R. Roberts. In almost all parts of the world, it
appeared to him that howev.r dal' or benighted the
inhabitants mieht be, they had some Idea of worship
and reverence for • supreme Being. The English were
ennsidered by foteignere to have this fa ling
and he trusted that it would ever be their characteristic.
The Chairman then referred to the various developments
of Pretestant truth, from the 15th century, when the
Loner's, were the dissenters from the established or
Romish faith, then to the Nth when those who pro.
(need It, meelicel truths were teemed Gospellers and

of untrained and as the world called them ignorant

celled —that the truth spread from town to town and
village to village. They had the love of Chria in their
hearts and love to the souls of men. Since those days
they had enlarged their cords end strengthened their

or chapels in almost every Yillap in England. but sent
missionaries abroad. He would call them one a the met

• very happy thing for them thss they did not depend
on a gorgeous ritual, or lighted estates, or incense, or
splendid mimic, but in their ehspels the glorious truths
1 of salvation by Mint alone, the nece.sity of holiness of
' life, and the indwelling of God's spirits within, were
I the enamel doctrines put forth—(lowl applatt.e.) The
I Chairman concluded by commending ammo .ngaged in
the work to God's keeping, end in the earnest hope that
many, very Many would be truly converted to God in
that building. He then expressed a hope that ev.ry
endeavour weal I he toad. to free the chapel of debt;
snd handed to the fenneriotandent of the Circuit, Mr.
Cooks, a chime' for £5.
The Rev. James Cookie after acknowledging the
kindness of Captain Littlehales in being present, said
'bet with reference to his advice, not to be in debt—he
could only give them some outline of how they at
present stood. The emit of the land on which the
ehapel was built was e4OO. The original mantel* by
the architect for • ohapel wee from £13,000 to £14,000.
It was then Intimated to him that the style of
architeeture must be such a. would be suitable for
• building having on oneside the venerable
minster, end on the other, one of the moat noted
grammar echoois in the county. He replied that
being the case it would cut much more money. The
building committee, after much thought and earnest
prayet. then invited for estimates, some of which were
even as high as £21,000. end the very lowest Wl4
1.19,(11). Tble did not, however. include the massive
iron pillars for supporting the roof nearly 20 tons of
iron—nor yet glass for the echool windows. The total
cost would be nearly 12.650. They would now ...lc

illogden, of Brietol, who leceived his education in the
Grammar School, a brother a the gentleman who laid
the fonndation stone of the chapel, bad sent a cheque
for two gninee.— (cheera).
Mr. JACtleuer, 11 Stourpaine House, then addressed
the meeting. expressing his sdmirotion of the chapel,
and his earnest hope that much good would be dom.
I He then very strongly dwelt on the desinability of gush
an «Slice being entirely set spart fir the worship of
God, and not, as many would have them, used for ,
secular purpose.. He also expressed • wish that the
Wesleyan chapels were better buildings, and stated that
though in many villages the Wesleyan connection lasi
chapel., there were many still where such were required,
and that their Primitive brethern were getting them an
example in this respect. Alluding to the earnest seal
.4 Mr. Cooke. he remarked that he wan told by • friend
that that gentleman hat got the Wimborne people into
• difficulty, to which he replied "You have no leer, be
will ert you out ream.'
The Rev. J. KETNEit (Independent), in an excellent
speech, very f. rihly dwelt upon the neceseity of the
members of Christian churches showing by their daily
llf.', that they were Christ's disciples. He maintained
thst their duty was a much harder one than that of
miniffers, who got up and preached a sermon, no one
daring to contradict them. They had to fight daily, and
must bring all their business transactions to the test of
the Chriatian standard.
Mr. STRANGE proposed votes of thanks to Mr. Buck-
inglisim and Mr. Hinds for their great kindness, the
former in gratuitously coming forward and furnishing
the neces-ary glue, &a, for the dinner and arranging it,
end the latter for his assistance in waiting at the tables.
also to the ladies who had so neatly decorated the
room, and to Captain Littlehales for preidding, all
which w. re most cordially greeted by the company, and
the Chairman having returned thetas, the company
broke up.
A 5 o clock a pnblic tea wiss held in the mime place,

SUICIDE OF A "MAKER.'

The Ammeicen papers contain reports of so inquest
held at Letbanon Springs on the body of a poor young
girl natuel Ellen Weer, • member of the United
Society of Sly miters, who had committed ouicade by
drowning herself on the sth of June last. The inquiry
which took place immediately after her death not being
esteemed satisfactory—ohm° It was held before •
friendly Justice of the Parer, not before the Coroner
--the body was exhumed, and a more oar. foil
!,,,..stigation into all the eironnistanoes was! made,
at the close of last month. Ellen Calver, with her
parents sad her (may, eine in number, sailed from
lenelend in November 1549, and landed in America on
New Year's day of 1650. She was then • Itttle more
than two 7.•aes of age. In September of the same Peer
the child, being about three years old, was removed to.
thm! Church Family of Shakers at New Lesbanon •. and
t we 11..150rne, she remeined until, on the sth Of
June. she was fount drowned in • pond. Her sister
Aliteii• nutted before the Coroner that she had seen
Elea on the day of her death; and the only thing Hat
struck her on that tournine was, that the &weasel
eeemmel pale, ate no breakfast, end was more than
ustia ly oat of Bert.. For the previous month she had
been "queer," though she bed made no compleint.
There is no sea I for the hypothesis of foul play; but,
as it seems, the it. iehbours were not content. There
had been an irreeular inqu'ry. In place of summoning
the regelmr Coroner, Hiram Allen, of Chatham, the
Shakers had entrumted the conduct of the investigetion
to Squire Hull, who seem to have been consitred so
their friend. Rumour in the states is even more fast
and fleet of wing then amongst ourselyea. What if the
young girl had c by her death unfairly? light
there not love been sign* of violence or oth.r telltale
!marks about the body which would lewl toe shrewd
gnome at the teal sauna of death? After lying wen
weeks in time grave, the bedy of the unfortunate young
worn on was dig up; and Hiram Allen, the officiel
coroner, proee-ded to take a snore reguler and formal
inquest. Amelia Calver, Ellen's sister, woallowed to
inform the Court of • revelation which she had received
from the other side of the grave. She told the I 'orormer
and tie jury: "I believe I had a communication with
Ellen since her death. Part of her communication wee
written down by toe. I gave it to my brother. She
told me she yroald not have caused us—the Shakera—so
mmich trouble for six thouaaimml worlds. She said she
felt strange as she stood by the water, and wanted to
jump right in ; but sometbing held her beak, and she
knew no more until the water struck her face. I have
load no doubt about her death since her communication
to me. She never eepressed diesatefaction with the
Shakers." Now, from this revelation—for testimony it ,
ean seercely be celled—it is plain that the Shaken, ,
feared to get into trouble shout Ellen Celver's death.
II or Oster obvioualy entertained doubt., even at first, !
:tc to the clause of death ; and, finally, the urgency of !
the coo has been no great that a spirit must needs be
summoned to explain the diffielltv I But see how
ungrateful some people are. The first person examined ,
before the Coroner wan Benjamin,: Gatos, one of the
trustee s of the society. He .aid he had noticed e•idearees
of in-unity no for back as Jenu mry last. He ow it iu
her eyes. beauty was Imerediteruy in the girl's family
—were they not all .piritualista! The other witoteures
examined before the Coroner do not appear to have
thrown very much light on the imniediste cause of the
poor girl's suicide. Sarah Ann Standish, s member of ,
the society, affirmed that Ellen had complained of feel-
ing had in her head before the sth of June. She helped
to "fix" Oki body in the coffin, but sew no bruise upon
it. George Johnson had seen the body after death,
the next day, and he had seen a mark on the forehead,
the size of • shilling, near the edge of the hair. One
of the sisters had told him that Ellen must have hit
her head against something at the,bottem of the pond.
Planta Beck bed noticed the poor girl to be extremely
unsettled and "very funny in the eye." shortly before
she rushed out to throw herself into the eater. James
Mason gave some curious teetimony an to the minutely
virtuous rules of the order—for inesnee, that it was
" contrary to order, to sh he hands with worldly
women without confeseine it; to play with cats and
dogs; for blethers and sisters (of the community) to
pos on the stairs; to go out of the door-yard without ,
I h-•rel :to read riewaeareers lee The same settees ,
&clued that the Shakers made great pretensions to
chastity, and preached it from morning to night ;" yet
he heal been hut a few days in the society. when par
Molly Slaughter— starved of all innocent itya, and
piqued, perbape, by curiosity sheet the real mooning of
the virtue no par,isiestly dinned in her eare—" wrote
me that she loved me. and she hoped I would meet her
in the garden." Young Mr. Moon deelered that he
lout "s• en the Elden and Elden-saes gong into each
others room's at al t every time of the day ;" but
clearly the Society could net admit that the testimony
of this w,tneos wa• worth anything—for had he not
the elf moiety to coulees that be "met that girl in the
gerden ?' Other evident* prompted more than •
suspicion that the shaker community at New Lebanon

witneitees out of tin way; but. on the whole, the
So let! does riot seem to have exetceemi any eeverities
that directly eammed the suicide • an.i the :Shakers are
held to be "exonerated" by ;he verdict that the
deoeueel committed suicide by drowning. Still, the
peculiar people of New Lebanon do not seem to have
borne the ordeel with the ordinary calm of conscious
innocence. They caused • statemm at to be read before
their meeting, in which they gave their own version of
the waiter; and in that account • few ascertained
points of the poor girl's biogrephy are set out as we
have given them. She is demetibed as a person of
bright intellect, senaitive temperament, and delicate
brain; of ummblemiehed reputation, and of °ended above
censure. In her phrenological character were pre-
dominant veneration. &inures, emelt-esteem, and large
hope. She had pleasant illuminetion• while is

pains to show how they adopted all the precautions in
their power to give publicity to le r death, and to court
investigation ; in short, they say that they did evert-
thing poomible, rave summonsing the Coroner. Grunting
, that they are "exonerated." at all the incidents
strongly recall to our minds the strange, perplezel,
haphazard striving of peculiar sects in the States to
find nut the truth about either life.

constable Webb (being retained by several of the
crineipal inhabitants of Wallingford), applied for • cross-
summons against the impector, Police-constables Goull
said Joseph Welles.. Mr. Merriman pl diced himself to
show that the alleged ch•rge at drunkenness and assault
sexiest Webb was unfounded, and that Webb, • civil,
vigilant, and deserving officer, had been brutally mal-
treated by the three complsint., owing to a grudge
they had againa him for the impartial and vigilant

was agreed that the application for • summons should
stand over, and that the original case should first be

his evidence to the effect that on Friday night, the
defendant was found drunk while going his round. He
ordered him in. but defendant refused to go, and struck
him. With the aid of Police-constables Gould anal
Wellman be got him to the station after a struggle of
some twenty minutes. In the eel he hal to tie his
legs. At this stage of the proceedings Superintendent
Grant arrived, and, on behalf of Colonel Bland!, chief
countable of the county, objected to the jurisdiction of the
magistrates, anal stated that he was instructed by
Colonel Bandy to see that the charge of assault was
withdrawn. The magistrates, however, refused to
allow the ease to be withdrawn. Polieutionstables
Gould and Wellman gave a irroborative evidenee. Mr.
K. Mara, boottnaker. Mr. W. Clarke, eoredeisler, anal
Mr. W. Brooker, postman, /severally bore witness that
the defendant was knocked down by the complainant
and his witnesses, and was kicked and knocked about
by them. In cross-examination this evidence was not
shaken. The magistrates adjourned the ease and
granted the application for • crow-summons. The
amid is cresting great excitensent in the town.

SFRIODS RAILW•T ACCIMMT.-00 Monday forenoon
an alarming and serious siocident recurred to the
Midland express, due at the Brunswick Dock at 12
minutes poet eleven, when approaching the 05100
station. About roe yarde beyon the etation there is •
coal aiilinx, and just before the approach of the express
the poictiman had opened the point. to admit lume •
train of coal waggons. This aceoniplished. it would
appear that the min, instead ef clowns the Point'.
allowed them to reniain open, and when the exPrees
came up it wax also directed into the sliding, when •
collision with the cowl train ensued. Toe passenger
train consisted ef the engine and six carriages, and com-
ing at sonridemble speed the engine dashed through the
btakevan in rear of the coal tram, and then springing in
• xtraordinary fashion upon the top of the waggons,
remained fixed and upright as though pissed there for
removal. The top of the 61..1(e-riot was carried by the
force of (Ito collision some dozen yerds away, and con-
siderable darnxge was done to several of the waggooa.
Fortunately for the pi sengers in the expreee train the
carriages did not foil.w the engine throughout its
eccentric course, but became detached ; yet still all the
carriages were niore or less shattered, and some of the
occupants sustained injuries more or lea severe. The
parson who appear. to have been most severely iniorwl
is a man named John Devoe, who wail taken to thoOock
and Trumpet Inn. The pour fellow healable*. y lost one

which may possibly render amputation of the other

names we could learn who bad been injured were Mr.

injuries to the head and chest. The injuries sustained

when another engine was procured. The engine-driver

As this inquiry has been made by One who himself gave
up this position for conscience sake, Mr. Vevey hag
replied to it. First layieg down that his duty as a
teacher is to declare that which be believes to be the

should not prevent him from carrying out what his con-
scienee laya upon him. The Church, he points oat, is
under legislative control, and Can have its articleo

Liberals within her have produced fruit in a relaxed
subscription. She can be made to accord with the age
again. "On this account solely, and not for ite rank

vation that there is no liberty, no independence worthy
of the name, to be enjnyed el-ewhere. We are alike
free from the tyranny of conferences and of congrega-
tion.. We are upheld and protected by the law of the
land, and, until that law is declared against us, we have
an equal right to teach and minister in our Chareh

Tug BRION 801LNDAL has bad the eff, et which might
have been anticipated. There has been • greatly
increased demand for Byron's works, especially the
" naughty" poems. We do not, of course, like to judge
a poet raehly, so we set to work to reid his worst works,
in order that we may be quite sure how very wicked he
wee. " Don Juan" gem like wildfire, and the young
ledies, we hear, at least, from • libiarian, are most
elisions to read "Pon-ins," which is "so shockingly
improper, you know, dear." When Byron first wrote
it became quite the fashion for young men to have
blighted heart., and tern down their collsrs—and, as
Macaulay phrased it, to 'hate their neighbnura and love
their neighbours' wives." It is most devoutly to be
wished that Mrs. Stowe's new revelation of the poet's
wickedness will not be followed by a reaction of thin
admiration of Lire.

the almost undisguised manner in which these four
persons were succeseively removed, four years should
have elepeed before the guilty partiee were brought to
justice. The woman Miard, now aged 39 years, had
been married when young to StaniAles Janvier, • mao
whom she disliked; the result was that she deceived
him, and he, who was aware of her misconduct, fre-
quently ill.treated her. She at length grew to hate
him, and Anne Dupin, • woman of a most profligate

her toisfklaisle in all her intrigues, and at length per-
euaded her to cot rid of her husband, offering to procure

LORD AND LADY BYRON.— To thc Editor of Ike Skin-

columns to a few hem in defence of my ullustrions
friend be whose side If ought in the war of Greek
independence. Not long before poor Byrou's death I
hail • oonvergationwith bins touching his separation
from Lady Byron. He said he believed it was
°semi by hi, own gallantries, but he hoped
to make it up when he returned home. "To
tell the truth," he said, "1 hair a mistress before
the honeymoon was over ; and when once or twice she
neorly discovered it, I lid her the woman she had seen
me with we. Augnata Leigh, and poor Augusta had to
lie on one oecasiou to get me out of the scrape. At last
there was • shill, and she found that out, and saw that
I hod been deceiving her all along, and she was very
angry and we parted., ' I said if that wsa all I did not
think the quarrel should bare lasted eri long, when he
added that Lady Byron had seemed Augusta of being a
party to the intrigue, and used such language to her
that he could never reside with her again unless it was
epologieedfir and withdrawn. " Pon know," he added,
"what • sister Augusta has been to me, and I assured
Lady Byron on my honour as a gentleman that Augusta
knew nothing in the world of Mr amour till it had been
going on for four months." The mistrem, I think, from
