ItEsTORATMS or CHICHESTER CATIIEDRAI..—A rum I
of £28,000 has been subscribed towards the restoration
of this cathedral, and it is estimated by the architect I
that a further I:22,000 will be re luireit to complete the
works. In order to accelerate as far as po,ible the
raising of the sum, an influential committee of gentle-
men, at present resident in London, has been formed.
8UII1DT: OF A DOT.—The town of Haloswortli WRY
lately thrown into a state of great excitement by a
report that a youth named Burgess, about thirteen
years old, boarder at Mr. John Manna's academy, bad
cennuitted auicide by drowning lihneelf in a pond near
the Gae-house. The boy partook of breakfast sui usual,
and it is supposed that on going out of lie. biennial's
house lie went direct to the pond and oununitted the
rash act. It is • melancholy fact that within the last
twelve months four persons have committed suicide in
this town three out of the four having been drowned in
this pond. An inouest was held on Friday, when the
following verdict was returned "Found drowned, 1
but bow or by what means no sufficient eviaence to I
show." The coroner and jury requested the attention
of the surveyor* to the pond where the accident ,
occurred, as it does not appear to be sufficiently pro- I
Meted. They consider that no lama. was attached to I

New York respecting a volunteer colonel whose experi-
ence' of prison life have not been limited, and who is
co:meal:wilily well-known to the police, lie started •
recruiting office and advertised for men. Knowing the
colonel's antecedents, all the thieves, burglars, and
rowdies at New York docked to his standard, sod he
soon got • fine regiment together. They WWI numbed
away from the city, and wherever they encamped or on
the march they committed depredations. It is said
that the following VOW not all uncommon scene at the

UHWHOLgignie MEAT.—In consequence of the
discoveries recently made at Chatham of the unwholesome
character of the meat furnished on several recent
occasions by the army butchers for the troops at that
garrison, the most stringent regulatione have been
adopted, under the direction of Major-Genera I Eyre,
couimanding the district, to prevent a recurrence of such
practices on the part of the coutructors. With this
view, the asaiatant-connuissnry-general of the garrison,
accompanimi hy an officer apecially selected for that
duty, and one of the sergeants connected with the
barrack department, will ettund at the slaughter.

barracks ter distribution to the troops, the sods will
be examined, in maler 1.. asoertaiu that they have not
been tampered with, after which it will be cut up
for the troops. Ilv these precautions 'nothing but really
good meat will in future be allowed to be sent to the
barracks for the use of the soldiers. Amistsot-Coininis-

at Chatham on several OINCSSIODS be hiss

at Meidatone. Fresh supplies in those caisim were
purchased at the coat of the ooutractors. The beef thus
condeuined waii not diseased. It was, however, of
inferior quality.
DEATH PROM THE BITE OF A Vicious PONT.,—The
Liverpool borough coroner held an inquest on the 21st
Met., on the body of Thomas Eglin, a cowkoeper, who
died in the Royal Infirmary on Saturday from lock-jaw,
baring been severely bitten on the arm on the Bth,
instant by a pony. In the comae of the inquiry it
transpired that the pony was of a most vicious nature
and that another person is now confined in the infirmary
from injuries received from it.
Diseura IN THE Huti.inNu TRADE. Sonia of the
workmen in Mears. Lucas's yard came the other day
to the foreman, and asked that, as the evenings were
long and the nights fine, they might be allowed to work
12 hours. To this Mr. Lucas replied that lie had
adopted hour payment to allow the men to work eight,
nine, or ten hour*, as they ungld tbi.ose, and that their
yards should be open 10 hours, but not
beyond tied unless the majority of their workmen
wished. The men, however, proved to be unanimous
in their desire to work 12 hours, :mil accordingly, they
now leave at five for tea, and return hum G till thus
raising their weekly earnings from 33a. to 39e. Unfor-
tunately, this has only exasperated the Trades' Uuiowi
to the very utmost, as the pickets and Union men
show by increased demonstrations of hostility to the
uien employed lay Moors, Lucas as they enter and leave
their works. Mr. Myers yard in exactly opposite
Mr. Lucas's wad the former gentleman un-
fortunately I:as in his employ all ultra Union men,
who sometimes turn out to hoot mu jeer at those of
Messrs. Lucas as the latter go to work. Of course, Mr.
Myers is powerless to prevent this, amid in fact there are
few, if any great contractors who have suffered more
from loss and inconveuience Irina the yoke of the Trades
Union than Mr. Myers himself. As, however, there is
a larger body of tneu at Lucas's, than at Mr. Myer's,
nothiug has ever been Attempted in the way of violence
till Friday morning, when a mason of Mr. Lacas'saiemed
Kitchen, who was • few minutes later than his com-
rades, and therefore alone, was set upon by some of the
Union anon, and so fearfully beaten and kicked as he
lay upon the ground that he was obliged to ho removed
at owm to King's College Hospital, when it was found
that besides other elighter injuries, his ribs were badly
fractured from kicks. The chief actors is this cowardly
outrage were a mimeo in the employ of Dlr. lbere, and
another man, name yet unknown, who was supposed to
he one of the Trades Union pickets. The mason in Mr.
Myer's euiplev, wore • large beard with mouatache,
but sheltered hay ilie brother Cuioniete, he
retreated to Mr. Ilyers's yard, when he cut off his beard
and whiskers, and was then put over a back wall by his
comrades just as the police were entering the yard. So
far, therefore, be hu managed to escape, but Messrs.
Lucas are determined to spare no trouble or expense
in their endeavour to apprehend and punish him.
DESPERATE ATTEMPT TO DII'IIDER.—A shocking
attempt to murder was made by Henry Carter on one
of the wardens of the Ricbtuond Prison, Dublin, nained
Bell, on Saturday. Carter, who is a deserter from the
40th Iteximent, is at present undergoing • term if six
mouths imprieonment for an aamult cumulated on
police-conetalile 79 A, who endeavoured to arrest him in
the suburbs of Dublin, on a charge of deserting from
his regiment, and violently assaulting head-cuustable
Rock, of the Balbriggan constabulary etation. On
Saturday Bell had occasien to visit the cell in which
the prisoner wits colifined, when the latter sprang upon
him, and with a razor inflicted two frightful woods
on his neck. Medical aid was promptly obtained for
the wuunded into, who is in a very precarious state,
slight hopes being entertained of hie recovery. The
prisoner was carefully secured, and as lie is a man of
most desperate character, every means were Adopted to
prevent him doing further injury to any person.
