• DUBLIN, Jar. 16.
The Rev. C. J. Hut, chaplain of the Dublin guri-
non, and hon. secretary of the Dublin branch of the
Central tosociatioa,describes as follows the condition
in which 641 soldiers' wives, and 140 children, who
returned from Turkey in the Himalaya, arrived in
Dublin last week. He says:
The whole of thee* poor women and children waited upon
me at different intervals during the day, and gave a a sad
account of their sufferings sad privations during a three
days' voyage from Portsmouth II deck paseengers. During
the whole of that period no rations of
beencp were
served out to them ; and that bad it sot for the 'gene-
rosity of the Colonel of the Royal Wilts Militia, Lord Me-
thuen, who at his own expense gave them a little bread,
meat, and porter at Portsmouth before they embarked, they
would literally have starved. As it was some of them were for
36 boon without food for themselves or little ones. When
they landed at the North wall they were met, not by
officials," but by suet of porters, who wharfed them most
exorbitantly for earryine their little hones to the different
railway Stations, &a. They then es to me, is the great-
est misery and di tress for advice rmi &wistaria. 1 sent
them at once upon oars to the districeparolleegt Beggar's-
bush Barracks, where they were wont reeeived, and
furnished with the proper pale. wegessals mad subsist-
ono. mosey to enable them to poses timir and
lonely journey. I was fortunately NOW to give each
woman a small sum of money, holm the fast-failing funds
of the Central Association, to defray issidastal expenses on
the road. I trust I shall not be ellunoil of meddling in
what dorm not concern me by bristles the foregoing facts
he your notice ; but, as • military dovish' in Dublin I feel
it to be an imperative duty to sus any effort, however
humble, in looking after the interest of thaw poor women
and childres who may be landed on our quays, without
friends, and deprived of the natural protection of their
breve husbands and fathen, who are gone to distant
battlefield. to shed their blood for their country and their
Riovereign.

CORONER'S INQUEST.--VERDICT 07 MAN-

last through the falling of some timber from • vehicle called
a " trolly," the same being at the time in hte charge of a
young man named Robert Bishop, a driver in the employ
of !Sewn. Chaplin and Borne. It appeared from the
dence that the " trolly" was loaded with three large walnut-
trees, which were to De taken into the yard of Yr. Radii,
timber merchant, Bear-lane, Blackfriars. The trees, how-
ever, being forked at the ends, and wider than theimbs gateworeway,
the carriage was unable to pass. Two of the l

secured the timber had to be removed. While some parties
were carrying the limbs into the yard, Bishop, the driver,
for ome reason or other, drove away towards Gravel-lane.
Mr. Neal, foreman to Mr. Bad's, immediately called to the
driver to stop, but In a few seconds one of the trees, being
without any fastening to retain it on the "trolly," fell to
the ground, carrying one of the others with it. One of the
trees fell on the deceased and killed her instantl. A lit

furry.
It was stated that although the roadway in Bear-
eisin a shameful condition, and dangerous for timber
carts, the accident would not have happened had the wal
had trees been properly secured ; and as Bishop, the driver,
had admitted to a policeman that it arose from his having
neglected to fatten the timbers before he started, the
Robert jury
returned a verdict of " hfaaslaughter against
Bishop "
