The Hon. SACRATAIIT reported the arrangements which
had been made for the collection of gifts of new and second-
band clothes, and also of materials suitable to be made up
into wearing apparel in the numerous sewing classes esta-
blished for the employment of women and girls in
receipt of relief. A storeroom had been provided, and
a storekeeper appointed to this room. the clothes and
material received could be so sorted that they might be
packed in bales, ioatinuing such quantities of tech article
as might be desirable to send to each district. The Mayor
of Manchester read a letter, enclosing 1001. from Mr.
Loobazoglu. The Hon. Secretary reported thatudverti azalea ta
had been inserted reties papers for clothing and materials. It
had been suggested by the committee that on proper appli-
cation being mode, certifying that the parcels contained
either clothing, or materials for clothing, for the distressed
operatives in the cotton districts, arid provided that the
parcels were addressed to Mr. M'Clure, Hoe. Sen., the prin-
cipal railway companies would probably convey them free
of cost. Acting upon the suggestion, it was resolved that
the railway companies should be asked to grant this
favour. It was also suggested that in the principal towns
a committee might be appointed to receive gifts of clothing
or matertais, and that the committee could charge itself for
whatever expenses were incurred in packing or procuring
suitable bales ; such local committee would pay the oast of
carnage, cr.epply to the railway companiesto pass the
parcel. free. A letter was read from the chairman of the
Fast Lancashire breech of the Lancashira and Yorkshire
Railway Company, stating that the 5,0001. great of the
shareholders would be paid in ten monthly instalments of
RV, each, if the distress continued so long. The secretary
was instructed to write to the local relief committees in the
chief towns, requediug that they would prepare a depot for
the reception of such quantities of coal, the gift of Mr.
H. B. H. Blundell, as might be allotted to each place. A
copy of this letter was also ordered to be (Grenades.' to Mr.
Pickering, Mr. Bluudell's agent, for his guidance. Mr.
H. B. Farnall, Mr. Robt. Gladstone, and the hon. secretary
were appointed a sub-committee to arrange for the distribu-
tion of the coal. In reply to a letter frau Crewe, asking if
• deputation would visit that town, it was speed, " that
this committee being a small body regret they cannot send
any deputation." In addition the hon. secretary wee re-
quested to write to the Crewe relief committee and to give
them as full information as possible. A letter from War-
wickshire enclosing 1,0001. was read and ordered to be ac-
knowledged with thanks for the same. A letter was read
from Major Brooks, of Manchester, informing the committee
that at a meeting of the commanding officers of the volun-
teer corps, held oo the 15th indent (Lieut.-Colonel Lord
Wilton presiding) it was unanimously resolved "That, sub-
ject to permission being obtained from the Earl of Wilton,
• small charge for admission to Heatou Park be made on
the occasion of the review of volunteers with the troops of
the garrison, by Lieut.-General Sir Charles Wetherell, on
Saturday, the 4th proximo, and the receipts be given to the
Lancashire Relief Fund." The General Committee Meeting
of the Central Relief Fund was fixed for next Monday.
Mr. FANNALL read the following report relative to the
condition of the poor, and the state of labour, in the 24
unions affected by the present distress —" Gentlemen, I beg
to bring under your consideration my weekly report, in a
tabulated form, showing the number of persons cow in the
receipt of parochial relief, the cost of outdoor relief, and
other matters connected therewith, in 24 unions in the
cotton manufacturing districts. There is an increase this
week in the number of persons relieved in these unions, as

of last year. There is an increase in the cost of out-relief,
as compared with that of last week, amounting to 325 d.
2s. ld. The total weekly cost of out-relief is now 8.5 M.,
being an increase of 6,371/. per week as compared with the
corresponding period of last year. The average per
mintage of pauperism on population in these 24
anions ie 7.8 ; at the same time lest year it was 2.2.
The aversze amount of out-relief per week per head
in these unions is Is. 201., the lowest amount being 1111.1.,
and the highest Is. siti. In the most distressed townships
of these 24 unions the average percentage of pauperism ou
population inky be estimated at 17. In 18 districts local
committers for distributing aid are assisting 110,000 persons.
lam obliged to report that all applicants for parochial
relief and for aid from local committees for charity are in-
creasing throughout the cotton manufacturing district. I
beg to hand yt.tt • report of the somber of children atteod-
ins day schools at the cost of the poor rates on the Ist

of other persons.—H. B. FARNALL, Special Commissioner."
A letter was read from the Mayor of Manchester,
inclosing a sewed contribution of 1791. 4s. 6d., his worship
stating that in his belief the committeeis the best medium
through which contributions can be distributed with the
greatest satisfaction. He also adds, "if all the funds were
entrusted to your committee it would he the best arrange-
ment" The amount is made up of 138/. 14s. 6d. by sub-
scription from the citizens, and 40/. 10a from the agents,
miners, and labourers of the Foxdale Mines, Isle of Mae.
Lord EGIKTON of 'karma moved, " That this committee
record the death of its chain.-.an, the Earl of Ellesmere. and
express its deep sense of the lose which it has sustained in
the generous and enlightened nobleman, the influence of
whose character and station have been so beneficially exerted

We are at length enabled to publish a perfect list of the
acceptances for the Cesarewitch and Qunbridgtabire Stakes,
which until the present issue have not been complete in any
at the public journals. In reference to the cause of this
eoefusioo, a notice appears in a number of the sheet
Calendar, published yesterday (Monday), to the following
effect :—" Owing to some irregularity iu the post, several
letters containing acceptances and declarations of forfeit far
the Cesarewitch and C.,mbridgeehire Stakes, addressed to
Meters. Weatherby's office, in London, posted at Doncaster
in due time on Monday evening, and despatched by that
evening's mail, were not delivered in Burlingtosatrest till
half-past 1 o'clock on Tuesday afternoon, being an hour
and a half after the appointed time. A few of the
acceptances had been made to Mr. Weatherby at Doncaster
en Munday, and by him forwarded to his office by that
evening's post. The matter was represented to the stewards
rif the Jockey Club,who were of opinion that the acceptances
and declarations which were delivered to the keeper of the
aeatch-book on Monday, to be forwarded to his office, were
valid, and a notice given to this effect. Subsequently some
of the gentlemen whose letters had miscarried made a repro-
eantation to the stewards, expressing a hope that the ex-
ception from the strict rule might be extended to them,
the circumstances being so similar. The stewards thereupon
laid a second meeting, assisted by the Earl of Derby, and
viltimetely decided that, under the peculiar circuinatiumes
of the case, they would admit as valid all the acceptances
and declarations of forfeit for the two races which were
transmitted from Doncaster by mail on Mouthy evening,
and were delivered at Mr. Weatherby 's office at the saute
tithe as those sent by himself."

Yesterday a deputation waited oo the Lord Mayor
at the Mansion-house to present to his lordship the following
address, which had been signed by 207 merchants, manu-
facturers, and other inhabitants of Preston :
"To the Right Hon. Wm. Cubits, Lord Mayor of Lon-
doe, and the London Relief Committee.
" Your Lordship,—We, the undersigned, merchants,
tradeemeo, and others, of Preston, have observed with dis-
approval the uncalled-for demand made upon your lordship
and the committee by the Manchester Relief Committee, to
resign into their bands the inactions so wisely and ably
discharged ,you in the distribution of the funds placed at
your dispmal for the mitigation of the distress in the cotton '
&Arleta of Lancashire and Cheshire. We desire to express
our warmest acknowledgments to you and your coadjutors
for the timely aid which you have rendered
to this and other districts, and which was tendered
in an ungrudging and catholic spirit, when the authors of
this demand stood by with folded arms, and declared that
no assistance was yet needed, although thousands were
starving. We beseech your lordship
.to resist any attempt
to supersede the London committee in it. life-saving exer-
tions. We declare our entire confide- ce in your lordship's
judgment and discretion, and our belief that there is not
the slightest foundation for the Manchester allegation that
the London fund has been in any respect improperly admi-
nistered."

The LORD MATOR expressed the gratification which he
derived from the presentation of an address which recognised
the justice of the course taken by himself and the commit-
tee, before which body he promised to lay the document at
the next meeting.
The deputation then thanked his lordship for his courtay,
and withdrew.

i• promoting the collection of • public fund, and whose
exertions in the organisation of the relief in the cotton dis-
tricts have beta proved during the trial of fading health."
Colonel W. nines seconded the motion, which was
carried wens. cow.
Lord EDWARD HOWARD inquired what arrangements the
committee would make as to the organisation of out-door
work, and iL proportion to the amount of relief granted ;
and to what classes of indigent persons the grants ought to
extend.
The reply of the committee was that in certain districts
penmen set on out-door work were paid at a rate per hour,
and that • certain portion of the relief given was required
to be earned by the persons set on work. And further,
that the cotton districts relief committee had appropriated
their fund to the relief of cotton workmen, their families,
and dependents reduced to indigence. The word dependents
was intended to include all indigence, even though indirectly
consequent on the crisis of the cotton trade.
Colonel WILSON PATTEN said he bad received and commu-
nicated to the local relief committee at Preston a letter
from the Right Hon. W. E. Gladstone, M.P., 3fferiug to
give employment to • certain number of unemployed opera-
tives, provided the expenses of their journey to Hawarden
Castle be defrayed, and that they be recommended as wen
of good character, capable of executing out-door work by the
Piece The following grants were made :-1501. to Hyde, 2:111. to
Glossop, 250/. to Rawtenstall, Ma to Recap, 1001. to Lees,
300/. to Ashton, and to Farrington declined. Etamber.bridge
postponed.
Thu concluded the business.

It appeared that the prisoner was at a beershop at Ilford,
and that he was in a very excited state from drink. The
prosecutrix, who was the daughter of the landlady, went
into the room where be wee, to take one of the customers
some beer, and the prisoner, without the slightest prow°.
cation, mulled at her and inflicted a somewhat severe wound
upon the breast. There did not seem to have been any
quarrel or between the prisoner and the prosecntrix,
and the medical gentleman who was called in expressed his
opinion that at the time the act was committed the prisoner
was suffering from delirium tremens, and did not know what
be was about.

Mr. Metcalfe said that upon the evidence that bad been
adduced be should not attempt to struggle against a convic-
tion for unlawfully wounding ; sod be urged that in the
condition in which the prisoner was at the time, he was
incapable of forming the deliberate intention imputed to him
by the indictment, and consequently be ought not to be
convicted of the more serious offence.

The jury found the prisoner Guilty of the misdemeanour
of uolewfully wounding, and be was sentenced to be im-
prisoned and kept to bard labour for twelve mouths.
