THE it1)111:ER IVA PIA1S11)% AT MAsciiESTER.—The

wesmJ adpiiirnasent of the inquest on the nine persons
killed in Bata-street, Manchester, by a boiler explosion,
bc Mg till Saturday afternoon, the pioe, lines were thee,
resumed. The prisaipal witm s • was Mr. W.
e.E., who gave the following r. port in evi-
dence. lie visited the scene of the explosion on the
Thursday following the event. The boiler was cylindrical
in form, 91 feet ti inches long, 6 ff. 2 inches in diameter, and
composed of plates 4-!tills id an inch thick. It had a flue
of the .tine thickness of plates. 2 fret three hushes in dia-
meter, which pa--ed thrieigh it from end to end. The Hue
was six ineher clear at the bottom, and the boiler hail two
diagonal stays an inch and three-epiartirs square, flattened
at the Vila and riveted to the bottom of the title. 'flw other
extremities of the stays were attached to the Nat ends, Clllll-
- of three-0:0d),* platys, which 1111.44 through tao
pies aof angle iron by around pin. '1 he ends of the stays
tivetted to the flue were flattened to receive the rivets,
leaving a very small portion of metal between the edge of
the ravet-hules and the ends of the stays, to resist
any severe strain in the event of the aceumulatimi
el high pr,e•itte 'team in the boiler. I have com-
puted the bursting pressure, assuming the flue to be
oiver.al with water. at 11011 w. to the square inch
taut, providing the ends had been properly stayed, it would
Lave sustain, d a pressure of ro a.. to the square inch.
The accident did not, however, arise so much from detec-
tive construction as from grow MillttlatliWlllllllt and igno-
mace of the inevitable cons“metsces which must arise from
the state of the boiler at the time of the explosion, as indi-
cated by preftent appearances. On a careful eaamination
rf the due and the lower parts of the Isider, there was every
iailication of a deficiency of water having existed, and that
a considerable porting of the upper parts of the Hue, and of
the side . of the boil, r, had been red hot during an hour or
two previous to the explosion. The fire must have been
under the boiler from the time the engine stopped until the
explosion took place, there being no escape for the steam.
excepting only a defective safety-valve. The result must
have been n gradual incense of pressure, and that, probably,
without exciting the most distant suspicion on the
part of the eugini ter that the boiler was in a dan-
gerous state. I fully believe that might have been
the case, from my experience of engine-Lenten.
I should call this reckless inattention on the part of the en-
gineer, assuming he hail knowledge of his business. but I
know there are a vast number who have not. 'faking all
the circumstances into consideration, I have no doubt of the
came of this melancholy occurrence. I firmly believe the
boiler was short of water, every outlet for the steam closed,
the safety-valve probably fast, the Hue and upper sides of
the boiler red-hot, highly elastic steam was generated until
the balance of the resisting forces of the material
was overcome, when an explosion must have ensued.
If the stays had been better arranged that might have pre-
vented the accident had the engine started, because the
boiler would have been relieved ; but supposing the engine
not to start. no amount of staying could have prevented ex-
plosion ultimately. But that is supposing the plates of the
boiler were nut hot. The blue appearance spoken of hy
Reed confirms my opinion of the great elasticity at which
the steam had arrived. Cross-examined by Mr. Bent, soli-
citor for the prisoner—There were only two stay-hands, and
I think there should have been more. The occupation of 1
the engineer in a state of excitement through being engaged
in packing the cylinder might excuse neglect at that time,
but not for four or five hours before. By the coroner—l do
not think blame attaches to the engineer alone, bat
I think blame attaches to those who employ incapable
engineers, and there is great blame to the engineer,
who from recklessness neglects attending to the state of
water in the boiler, and other ordinary precautions. Mr.
John Higgins was the next witness called, but not making
his appearance, the inquest was further adjourned to N% ed.
ntwday neat.

FATHER GAVAZZFS FOURTEENTH ORATION
YESTERDAY AT THE PRINCESS'S CON-
Y CERT HALL

THE JF.SEITS (PART I.).
The speaker began by referring to a letter he had
received, professedly front a lady, m unexceptionable
Italian, whereby the fair writer offered to renounce
in his favour her share of paradise, provided he
brought his lectures to a close by publicly apolo-
gising fi,r his attacks on the l'ope:dom. The father
knew not where to address this enthusiastic catspaw
of the Jesuits, but as doubtless their spies were in
the crowded auditory—(loud cheers)—they might,
perhaps, convey to their employers his scornful re-
jection
of their overtures, and, at the same time, his
disinclination to deprive the lady of her vested in-
terest in the abodes of bliss, a title hardly negotiable
in this projected transfer and surrender. Ile had a
great work before him, a nation to rescue, a degraded
worship to purify, a foul aggregate of infernal um-
postures to di.mounce and demolish; to that
[task he would gird up his loins and freely
devote the energies of his life. (Acclamations.)
Ihe attitude he assumed towards this order of mis-

chievuns übiquity had its attendant annoyances and
risks. But he had learned from the dauntless spirit
of Paul to hazard every contingency in the champion-
, ship of truth, and trampled in the dust personal
ap-
prehensions. lie came not to distort or to exagge-
rate. In the ranks of organised treachery were to
be found unconscious agents and deluded dupes.
These men were put forward as a musk. Arrayed
ostensibly as members of the corporation, their indi-
vidual character and plausibility helped to disarm
and to delude. Behind them lurked the plotter and
the cheat, the foul type of sanctified intrigue, the
bycwnrd for consecrated fraud in the vocabulary of
mankind. At his approach the balance between
good and evil, as far as the Whole body is invoked,
ceases to be doubtful. False appearances kick the
beam, and while the flimsy counterpuid is borne
aloft, the deep-laden scale of duplicity descends.
For such a man it were better for the church of God

he pretends to serve that a milestone should be tied
round his neck to sink him in the unfathomable sea.
By what foul process was such a being fabricated?
The cave of Manteau was the dark laboratory of
this Spanish fanaticism' and the "spiritual exercises"
its fitting Almond A frightful phantasmagoria was
conjured up around the votary of blind obedience,
and the proudest attribute of the soul, free will,
was forcibly eradicated. The man who entered
came forth a machine. Home, friends, kindred,
country, he knew thenceforth no more. A spy on
his confederates, he is himself girt round by a
gang of inbwiners. The heart that beats in a hunum
bosom is dead to all further emotion. The mind
has abdicated Its godlike functions. A dog with its
chain and collar is scouted us an apt embodiment of
his new condition by the exponents of the system.
'that implies vitality. A wuoden stock or a corpse,
"bacnbui awl ordarer," is put forth us the dismal
residuum precipitated by the alchemy of Loyola.
The intoxicating hemp. by the fumes of which the
" old Mall of the" Syrian "mountains" lulled the
senses of his murderous emissaries ere 1w scut them
Barth on his errands of assassination throughout

Asia faintly foreshadowed this formidable agency of
blind obedienee. Poverty and chastity were also
vowed, but were held in theory and practice as mere
aecoodury appendages to the first and distinctive badge
of the tribe, unscrupulous execution of the superiors
mandate; and the speaker entered into copious details
us to their methods of acquiring wealth, and the
sumptuous pulaces they contrived to appropriate in
all the great towns of Europe; while he furnished
not kits threible instanns of their laxity in point of
month., drawn from notorious oveurreuees, such as at
Monte Pulciano and Nlodena, in Italy ; Montpellier
and Marseilles, in France. Ile exonerated their
founder, Ignatius front the imputation of having
planned in its subsequent form of hideous develop-
ment the full scheme of the society's ambitious °rya-
niwition, which lie traced to the Neapolitan Aquartva,
during whose generalship of the order the crafty prin-
ciples of 3lmehiavellian policy were engrafted on the
original stock of stupid but energetic fanaticism.
Their influence on European cubiucts, and the
pernitious working of their obstructive and retrograde
industry throughout the world he would reserve for
separate animadversion : making but u brief allusion
to a kind of prophecy still treasured up among the
traditions of the Order, "We entered Europe us
lambs, became formidable as wolves, were chased
away like dogs, but our youth shall be renewed like
that of the eagle." Aye, from Venice, from Portugal,
from Spain, France, and Germany, the hell hounds
were driven out umid the jubilee of mankind ; but it
deplorably true that their society reappears under
the et/gide:ince of an eagle, the tyrannous, two
necked, and ill °tweed emblem that darkens our land
with its disnatrous shadow, until the avenging arm of
the people shall be finally put forth to crush the
obscene pheimmenon, and bury in one ..rave the Car-
nivorous bird with the purveyors of its carrion.
(('her..)
Thus fur the orator seemed but to prelude by a
few prel• • y touches on the general argument
which he now divided into two branches ; the order
considered as auxiliary to the popes individually, and
next, as subsidiary to the general interests of the
church; to both which parties he undertook to show
it had proved a bitter bad bargain. The original
compact lwtwecit this corps of banded junissaries and
the father of the faithful, involved pretty touch the
game dependeney as the Pretorian guards imposed on
their nominal musters in the decline of imperial
home; the pontiffs encall to be free agents ;
became a puppet in the hands of these,
its upholders and satellites to the constant
and ludicrous anuoyunee of its ostensible poasessor.
In the great controversy about divine grace, Clement
VIII. had the hardihood to question the theories of
the Jesuit Milani, and showed a leaning towards the
old doctrines of the I hind ii i tttttt Aquinas ; au hide-
pendenee unfavourable to limovity as far as his holi-
ness was concerned, he having died notoriously " isel
adore di rch,n"." Ilisrepugeance to canonise Fathers
I Garnet and Mown for their share in the powder
plot was doubtless intolerable. when hi, predecessor
I hail sung Tr herrms for the kindred pet formance of St.
Bartholomew. The urgency with which the order down
to this day clamours for the canonisation of Bellurtaine
and for the public recognition of his ultramontane
creed is felt to be a perpetual nuisance ; in the case
of the venerable l'alafox, their veto was found suffi-
cient to invalidate the acknowledged sanctity of au
adversary. In all the minor details of church govern-
ment. th.eir pressure is felt, and their ill-diasembled
omnitence exhibited. As for services done the
church, the scandals and odium they had brought on
Christianity vastly outweighed and 'fearfully counter
balanced any merits of that kind, to illustrate which
the Jesuit confessors of kings were paraded in
ghastly deformity before the moral sense of the audi-
tory; •]'arc La Chaiae, Mx. Lets:Hier, and other pan-
derers to royal profligacy in every Eurotwan court.
In the foul detainment of vaauistry they held no un-
enviable
eminence, Escobar, Busembaum, and a host
of similar scribes, laboured to mystify the plainest
precepta of morality ; while the prurient Senates had
rebind three folios on matrimony of such revolting
Indecency as to be publicly burnt by the common
hangman in France pursuant to a decree of the
Parisian parliaments. Dissimulation, perfidy, and
falsehood were the familiar instrumentalities resorted
to in their championship of Roman catholic as-
cendancy, and their devottinal inventions, into which
the father entered at considerable length, were de-
rogatoty to the Redeemer and the great work of his
atonement. For two hours he continued to accumu-
late facts and draw inference* illustrutive of the mis-
chief traceable to this fatal institution, and though
the ground he went over has been frequently trod-
den. old arguments appeared fresh, trite statements
were clothed in such novelty and force of diction as
to keep the assembly in breathless attention to the
close.

MuTINT.—On the Ist of August last the merchant
schooner Secret, Captain Jamieson, was at anchor in line-
heanina Bay, New Georgian Group, when four of the
crew mutinied, and joining the natives who were on
board, took possession of the schooner, which they
kept for upwards of an hour. The captain and
mate were m the cabin, and by keeping up a regu-
lar fire through the skylights they killed the native
chief, and succeeded in clearing the deck of the mutineers
and their allies, who jumped overboard and swam ashore.
The captain and mate now went on deck, and found that
two of the crew were killed, and one severely wounded.
Captain Jamieson then slipped his cable and stood out to
sea, followed t 7 the canoes of the natives, who, on the fol-
lowing day (betngstill in sight of land), attempted to bo,rd,
but were prevented by the steady fire front the schooner.
The loss of the natives is not known, but is supposed to hen
been severe.—Sautical Standard.
