Ma. CHARLES DICKENS wishes us to contradict the
paragraph (quoted from the Derby Reporter), relating how
3001. had been presented to In•pector Field, late of the
detective force. Mr. Dickens says "The statement is
unimportant to me, but as it might cast a slur on the con-
duct of a most excellent officer in the discharge of his duty,
I beg you to do him the justice of contradicting it, on my
assurance that it is one or the most extravagant inventions
I have ever seen in sly life, without a scrap of truth for its
foundation."

BLOCKADE OP VERA CRUZ.—The Mexican govern-
ment has published the following decree :—" Article 1. The
port of Vera Crua is closed to foreign commerce and the
coasting trade. Article 2. The merchandise introduced
into the above port, from this date, is prohibited being
conveyed into the interior, under penalty of confiscation.
(Signed) PRlZTO.—Mexico, Dec. 30, 1852."
THE LATE EARL OP BEAUCHADP.—Tho late
Earl of Beauchamp has left property to the amount of up-
wards of 700,0001. His executors are the Hon. Colonel
Scott (brother to the Earl of Clonmell), the Rev. Thomas
Philpott, and Mrs. Hitching (the early friend and protege
of the late Countess.) By his will the earl has made
Colonel Scott heir to all the landed estate not entailed with
the title. 20,0001. is left to the present countess, to whom
his lordship was married in 1850, in addition to her jointure
of 2,0001. per annum ; 20,0001. to Mrs. Hitching ; 2,0001.
to the Rev. Mr. Philpott; 2,0001. and 1001. per annum, to
Miss Thomas, companion to the late countess. Annuities
are likewise provided ti several old and faithful domestics.
60,0001. is to be expended in building and endowing alma-
henna at Maddresfleld for decayed and destitute agricul-
tural labourers. The personal property is estimated at
about 400,0001., of which sum at least one-half will fall to
the residuary legatees, Colonel Scott and Mrs. Hitching,
besides the sums invested for the several annuities and the
countess's jointure, when those investments shall lapse to
the estate. The entailed property goes, of course, with
the title, to his lordship's heir, his brother, the present
Earl of Beauchamp.
THE BURGLAR KILLED NEAR BRIGHTON.— A
coroner's inquest was held on Friday, at the Buckingham
Arms, before F. 11. bell, Esq., coroner. After hearing the
evidence, the coroner stated that the general rule of law
was, that killing a man in the commission of burglary was
justifiable. Did the jury think there was anything in this
case to make it an exceptional one ? " No, no, no," re-
sounded through the room, and the verdict was then agreed
to of " Justifiable homicide."

EXHIBITION OF MODERN ARTISTS AT Tiis
BRITISH INSTITUTION.

This Exhibition isreniarkable for theabsenee ofany.
thing strikingly effective or the reverse. It is, infects
rather dull, elthoug h the aye ge merit of the pictures
exhibited may perhaps be more than usually high.
The great predominance of landscapes over subjects
of more human interest assists the somewhat satiate-
lent effect of the whole collection : and these land-
scapes, numerous and highly meritorious as many of
them are, have the disadvantage of quite a singular
similarity in character and choice of subject. The
Stanfield type has numerous illustrations; and the
Creswick, Denby, and Copley Fielding styles are
still more plentifully represented. The sprinkling
of R.A.'s and A.R.A.'s is very light, and consists, for
the moat part,of works that diminish one's regret that
there are no more of them. UM "La Contadina"
is a head deficient in beauty and interest; and Pickers.
gill's companion pieces, "An Archer," and "A Lady
Hawking," are open to the same complaint, with the
additional one that the artist has erroneously striven
to give a couple of obviously modern portraits the
poor and unreal interest of an exploded costume and
occupation. A. Cooper's picture, called "Cutting off
the Retreat " has the fault of not sufficiently explain-
ing itself, even with the help of the title. No. 1,
"Dort," by Stanfield—to take the pictures that have
attracted our attention iu their order on the walls—is,
like all this artist's paintings, full of acute material
perception and good sense. These, however, are
qualities which grow wearisome after a time;
" enough" of them is better than " a feast." Stanfield's
pictures are invaluable as faithful records of historically
interesting places; but " the light that never was on
sea or land," which those who are the greatest in art
know how to express on canvas, is necessary to ren-
der the interest of any one painter's work inexhaus-
tible. We find much more of this quality in an
artist of a lower name than Stanfield's—T. Denby,
who has contributed u very beautiful work to the
present exhibition. No.lo, " Recollections of a Vene-
tian Canal," by J. Holland, is a spirited little piece
of painting, and has a much more Venetian look
about it than ninety-nine of a hundred of the
representations of Venice. No. 49 is a " View
in Eskdalo," by Copley Fielding, which will
delight all lovers of our English mountain scenery.
No. 71, a " Winter Sunset," by C. Branwhite,
is a very highly finished, and, in some respects,
highly successful landscape. The cracked and semi-
transparent ice on the river, and the cold glow of
the sun on the objects in the foreground, are points
deserving especial attention. No. 114 is a fine
" View of Snowdon," by Copley Fielding. 130,
" The Critics," by T. Earl, is a very clever and emus-.
ing picture of two terriers engaged in contemplating
an engraving from a celebrated picture by Landseer.
167, by G. Jones, the " Village of Waterloo in 181 S,
with the ion in which the Duke of Wellington
slept the night before and after the battle," is a
pleasing and interesting trifle. The artist has known
how to invest the scene with a singularly appro-
priate and contrastive air of humble rusticity and
quiet. Mr. G. E. Herring contributes some noteworthy
landscapes. No.lBo is one of them, and in speaking of
it we will call attention to a fault which nearly all our
landscape painters occasionally fall into. It is that
of neglecting to consider what weather is the best
offset of the particular scene to be painted. "Bor.
rowdale," the subject of the picture before us, is per•
haps the most gloomy spot in England. It is one of
nature's grimmest ruins, uud ought to have a stormy
sky above it, if not the hurricane in its very heart.
Such a scene loses immensely by the superincura-
hence of a commonplace and peaceable sky. E. J.
Niemann has avoided this fault in kis contributions,
particularly in his large and attractive picture of
" Moss Troopers," wherein the more subtly dismal
phenomena of cloud, land, and water, are
all in good sympathy with each other, and with
the nominal subject. No. 292, the " Salmon Trap,
Glyn Lleddr, North Wales," by J. Holland, is worthy
of the painter of the fine little Venetian glimpse al-
ready noticed. No. 331, called "' Just Out—the Tale
(Tail) of a Teal'—Quarterly List of New Works on
Natural History"—is a representation of two kite'
who have made a simultaneous pounce upon a
who has left his tail in the possession of his now
quarrelling attackers. It is a forcible work, hut not
pleasant ; one's commiseration for the poor teal is too
strongly called for by the pitiable plight in which
he is depicted. No. 428, E. Leer's " Mountains of
Thermopylae," is a striking work, and will add to
Mr. Lear's already well-established fame. And, best
of all, to our mind, is T. Denby's " Moonlight Feast,*
a heron devouring frogs by moon and glow-worst
light. This is an exceedingly poetical picture, and
has a mystery of calmness and quaintness about it
which it is impossible to describe.

DINNER TO DISSENTING M.P.s.—A grand dinner
is to be given on the 16th inst., at the Milton Club in Lon-
don, to the protestant dissenters who are members of the
House of Commons. Dissenters from all parts of England
will attend the banquet.
AN AUSTRALIAN EMIGRANT SHIP.—The CallioßY,
a government emigrant ship, left Southampton on Friday
last. She is a new vessel, of about 800 tons burden. She
took out about 330 emigrants, chiefly poor mechanics and
artisans. The married people and children are togethei;
the single women were all placed aft by themselves, and the
single men forward. A number of persons visited the
Calliope previous to her departure to see the arrangements
for the comfort and subtistence of the poor emigrants
during the voyage. The tops of the tables at which the
emigrants sit at meals slide up and down on upright poets,
in order to make more room for walking about. The
place for living and sleeping appears to be well ventilated
from the upper deck. The emigrants were on board the
Calliope several days before she started. At dinner time
crowds of them were assembled around where the rations
were cooked and served out. Each family or party Is
known by a certain number, and corresponding numbers
are found on wooden tallies attached to nets in which po-
tatoes are boiled. The meat (boiled beef) was served out
in tin dishes. The provisions served out were of good
quality. The Calliope is bound for Melbourne.
THE ORLEANS PROPERTY. Several packages
containing articles of vertu end property of value have ar-
rived by a steamer from France, addressed and consigned
to hie royal highness the Duke d'Aumale. These valu-
ables have been forwarded to this country from the chateau
of Chantilly, for the ex-royal family of France•
THE LATE SUSPICIOUS CASE OP DROWNING:so
On Friday afternoon the adjourned inquiry as to the cause
of the death of Jobs William Kennon, who was drowned at
Blackfriambridge, on the 20th December last (as reported
in our last), was resumed before C. J. Cantor, Eq., coro-
ner, at the Druid's Arms, Straitamouth, Greenwich. The
inquiry, ea will be recollected, was adjourned for the pur-
pose of a poet mortem examination being made, and also for
the attendance of a City police constable, it being supposed
that deceased was drowned in consequence of being knocked
into the river by a blow inflicted with a piece of wed
thrown at him by some person at Capel's wharf. The first
witness examined was City constable 339, who deposed to
being on duty on Illackfriambridge on the day in question,
when, seeing some coal-heavers near the Fleet ditch, he went
down and inquired what was the matter, when he was in-
formed that a boy had been drowned, and a girl was painted
out to him as having been playing with him. He low-
diately had the drags provided, and on his return found
that the irial was gone. In answer to inquiries, he denied
ever having told the father of deceased that the girl in-
formed him of his son having been struck by a piece of coal
on the head, neither did he know that tech was the ease.
Messrs. Sturton and Hollingsworth, surgeons, deposed to
making the post mortem examination of the head, on the
left side of which they found a wound, which might have
been inflicted by a piece of coal coming in contact with any-
thing at the time of the accident, and which wound, fpgm
the appearance of the blood, they had no doubt was caused
before death, Mr. Hollingsworth adding that in the wooed
there was some gritty substance, but he could not say that
it was coal dust. This being the whole of the additional
evidence, the coroner remarked that the jury could do no
other than return art open verdict, which was accordingly
done. The father of the lad made a complaint to the co-
roner, at the conclusion of the cue, of having to pay a sum
of Ws. to the parish undertaker for the picking up and
washing of the body of his son, which he was informed was
excessive. The coroner remarked that be had nothing to
do in the matter, and advised him to apply to the Board of
Governors on Tuesday next.—Kentish Mercury.

TILE ANGLING SEASON.—On the let of February
commences the season for salmon fishing. The Pr'et"
of the year do not seem to be brilliant, at least none of the
papers notice the premonitory signs of a fruitful season. `III
the Ness hardly a fl..h has been seen to rise since autumn,
and it is hard to say whether the numerous floods in the
river may be advantageous or the rerun to the spawnilog

rapidly progressing. The directors have just made a fresh
call of 11. sa. per share ul 51.

SHOCKING DEATII AT WHITSTABLE.—An inquest
was held here on Tuesday, by Mr. Delasauz, on the body of
Ann Woodcock, the wife of a labouring man. It appeared
that she had been, at an early hour in the morning of the
previous day, strolling on the sea shore in quest of copperas
stones, and, owing to the denseness of the tog, did not per-
ceive the rising tide till she was com:,letely surrounded,
when she attempted to escape, but .:14 drowned. Some
folks heard her screams, but did not arrive until too late,
when they found her a lifeless corpsc. Verdict, " Acei-
dental death." Deceased has left sevi

MUSIC.

MIL ELLA'S MUSICAL WINTER EVENINGS.
The " Musical V. litter Keening." ere s aeries of
perfnrmant ••• of clinical instrumental music, supplementary
to the well, known and justly successful "Musical Union
et which Mr. Vila is likes:se the founder. The " Winter
are on the None plan, and of the same quality,
as the entities of the " Musket Union," and supply, in a
morn weenies manuer, this scarcity of musical entertain-
ments of a high clue at this early period of the season.
Tee " Meeical lakes„ is cue of long standing and firmly
sesb:hhed ; the is only the second season of the" Winter
Etroinks;" but we trust that their success will ensure
their continuance, for, if their continuance as beneficial to
their spirited projector, it will be no less advaatageous to
the musical public. It iveuld be superfluous now to enlarge
nu the merits end services ol Mr. Ells as a promoter of the
art in Os most refined and elegant forms ; they are now
gesserally recognised.
The concert of Saturday evening consisted of Mozart's
tenth Ueartet, in 1); Beethoven's Pianoforte Sonata in A
Mat, which contains the funeral march on the death of •
hero ; meintelseohn's Quintet in A, Op. 18; and Schubert's
Ihnefurte Trio WE flat, Op. 100. The performers were :
—lint tied second violins, N. Molique and Mr. Mellon ;
fine and second tenon, M. luffrie and Mr. Webb ; violon
Wcello, y
Signor Piaui • and piaeofore. M. Charles HAM A
p.,er better qualified to do justice to the tasks assigned
them could not easily be fi med.
The tigartet of Moran, which began the concert, is cer-
tainly the weakest of the author's works of this class and
is inure rarely performed than any of the others. R • are
fat, however, from blaming Mr. Ella for bringing it for-
ward; for it is desirable that amateurs should have the
means of judging for themselves of its merits, with the
kelp of a tiuisheil performance. We have always understood
that the grtiftstirliess of this Quartet has been more than
doubted. N.,thiog whatever is known of its history.
Mr. Ella, in his Synopsis, states that it was composed in
re); but, though he is usually weleinformed and accurate
in points of musical history, here he is evideatly mistaken.
it is in the key of 11, and in common or 4-4 time. The
authentic catalogue of Mozart's works contains • Quartets
in that key and time, composed in 1789; awl knee Mr.
Ella's error. The Quartet in thy catalogs. is dis aleottt
set u( three, numbered 7, M, and 9, which are of the sower-
tante kind, stud filled with solo passages tor the diffelent ise
summate, and the catalogue for the year 1789 contains
these three, designated by their keys sot times, and stand-
ing in the ceder in which we have them. The catalogue is
continued, down to the very last days of Mozart's life, and
this soicatled No. 10 has no place in it. 11, therefore, it is
Mozart's at all, it must be one of his juvenile works,—•
supposition countenanced by its intrinsic character;
fir it has much of his peculiar aniline, the town
owl of his phrases, and his ingenious construction.
Bet it is destitute of the power he was wont to
eliiibit in 17b9, a period when his genius was in its zenith.
It we interesting, however, to hear it ; and its potion&
eon by four such artists was exceedingly agreeable. Its
comparative weakness was rendered more apparent by the
gigantic strength of Beethoven's pianoforte Sonata,
played immediately afterwards by Charles Halle. Mr.
(imbue, of Leicester, in the third volume, just pub-
lished, of bee " Music and Friends," bes asesibed this
wonderfal Sonata in a strain of yostlithi 41111611.1111111

impresses the hawser more deeply with the idea of power •
while its solemn and terrible grandeur is attend

trust they will boon be better known ; whenthey are, they

REVOLTING OUTRAGE AT BAIINELEY.—On Thorn-
day aftentoon, Mr. Thomas Taylor, one of the magistrates
for the Watt Riding, concluded an investigation into a most
diabolical outrage committed at the Bainsley Ou Works.
It was a criminal ioformation laid bye respectable married
woman. named Ellen Johnson, against Thomas Ellis and
Oilea Walralley, both =inlet: men, for having on Sunday
moraine last violated her person in the g..,
menuwrks. and bru-
tally ill-treated her. Two other married named ThCle.
l)ryden and Joseph Richmond, were also charged as ammo.
tire. All the four prisouen have been employed at the
Barnsley Gas Works for years. The details are of the most
atrocious character. Mrs. Johnson identified the prisoners
Elie and Walonley as being the two persons who violated
ber. Georg, Savage, the captain of the night police, and
George Grange and W. Royttone, corroborated the evidence
lathe proaecutrix as to hearing screams proceeding from
the Pe worlie, and to having seen her before she entered
there. Richmond and Dryieu were liberated upon eater-
mg tato their own recognisaate, to answer any charge at the
*wining ; and kilts un,l Walnasley, who, by the ad-
tut of their ...icitor, said nothing in their hen, wen
fully command for trial at the assizes. Great sympathy is
felt for En. Johnson, ace the cue has elicited great interest
and vast. One of the prisoners was foreman at the
work,.
