Dusus, Nov. 24.
There can be no longer any doubt that a vacancy
will be created at Kinsale at the opening of the next
session. The Cork Constitution states that, at the
instance of the constituency, Mr. Heard wrote to Mr.
Hawes to inquire whether the acceptance of his now
appointment vacated his scat, or if it did not, whether
it was his intention to retain the representation. Mr.
Hawes, in reply, stated that his acceptance of the
appointment did not vacate the seat, but that it was
his intention, on the meeting of parliament, to apply
for the Chiltern Hundreds. "The constituency (says
the Cork paper) may therefore prepare for the unop-
posed return of Mr. Heard."
The Dundalk Democrat says that the electors of
Drogheda are to meet this week for the purpose of
selecting some person to put forward as a candidate
in the place of Sir William Somerville at the next
election.

It is mentioned as a probable rumour that his Royal
Highness the Duke of Cambridge will be tendered
the Chancellorship of Trinity College, Dublin, vacant
by the death of the King of Hanover.
The Americans seem to have a special eyo to
Galway. The Galway Mercury says :
. _

*d
General Steuart, of Bre altimo, intc States, arrived in
town on Saturday morning, and, alter having inspected our
bay, called on the Rev. Peter Daly, P.P., and was in com-
munication with him until he left town in the nine o'clock
train for Dublin. The gallant officer breakfasted at the
College-house, with Mr. Daly, and expressed his warm
admiration of the scenery and great natural advantages of
Galway.

At the last meeting of the Town and Harbour
Commissioners of Galway, several very encouraging
leOrs from various parts of Ireland, relative to the
steam communication with New York, were read.
The machinery for the first beet-root sugar manu-
factory hos arrived at Mountmcllick, and is being
fixed in the mills constructed for the purpose there.
From the weekly commercial review of tho F'res-
man, I extract the following:

There has been a moderate business done in produce this
week, without improvement in price. For shares rather
more inquiry and higher rates. The corn market is steady,
and prices are fully supported. The payments from the
ineumbered estates this week are very trittie.g, not exceed-
ing 10,0001.
The custom duties for the week are 18,4001., of which
8,4001. on tea; 2,6001. on raw, and 4001. on refined sugar;
3,8001. on tobacco ; 1,8001. on wine ; 0001. on spirits. The
receipts for the earl eaponding week of 1850 were 17,8701.,
showing an increaae of 5301. The total receipts of duties
from ltith October to 22nd inst., have been, as compared
with last year: Six weeks of 1851, 114,7601.; 1850,111,Z,811.

THIS DAY.

Two o'CLocx.
The share market to-day sympathises with the
flatness in Consols, general heaviness being mani-
fested, accompanied with less disposition to operate.
Nearly all descriptions are quoted below yes-
' terday's rates, but the decline is the most
perceptible in Aberdeens, Caledonians Manchester
and Sheffields, :Midlands, and South Eastern's As
settling day is so near at hand, being fixed for Friday
next, strenuous exertions will doubtless be made to
depress the market.
The considerations connected with French politics
have brought sellers of the shares of that country
into the market, and transactions are to-day marked
in several descriptions, including Boulogne and
Amiens, Northern of France, and Paris and Stras-
bourg; but in no case can business be done, except
at a reduction from former rates.

The South Eastcmrece.--ipla—s-1; the week ending
the 22nd inst., show an increase of 1,3631.0ver those
for the corresponding sleek of last year, being
10,877/., against 9,3134 in 1830. The return of the
London and Brighton company being 8,332 L, against
8,1481., the increase is shown to be 204.

Station Committee have been unanimous in approv-
ing of Galway as the Transatlantic Packet Station.

appeared.
In the case of Birch against Sir William Somer-
ville, a special jury was struck yesterday, and the
26th inst. has been named for the trial, although it
is not expected that it can come on before the sittings
after the term.

There was another sale of encumbered estates in
Henrietta-street yesterday, the commissioners endea-
vouring to ease the pressure of business by having
occasionally a third sale day in the week. Threeestates
were offered yesterday for competitim--one in Mayo,
the property of John Bolingbroke and others, which
was sold at rates averaging between 13 and 14 years'
purchase; another in Meath, belonging to Cecilia
Brown, which averaged about 20 years purchase;
and the third consisting of some house property in
the city of Dublin.
A correspondent of the Freeman, writing from
Athboy, in the county of Meath, says :
As Mr. Dyes, of lleathstown, near Athboy, was on his
way to the fair of Carlanstown, on Wednesday morning,
between the hours of six and seven o'clock, within about a
mile of his residence, his horse was shut dead under his
car from behind the road ditch. Mr. llyas is a magistrate
of Westmeath, and agent to Sir Montague Chapman.
There was some house levelling on Sir Montague's Franc
property on yesterday. Some of the tenants are arrested.
There is an investigation at present going on at the police-
barracks here.

pose of considering an explanation to be offered by the pro-
meters of this undertaking, and for ascertaining how far
the inhabitants of that district may be disposed to support
the managing committee in their efforts to obtain powers
next session to construct the proposed railway. The chair
was taken by the Right Hon. Lord Harris, and the meet-
ing was attended by upwards of 300 persons. The noble
chairman stated that the project had received the sanction
of nearly 100 of the most influential gentlemen in the
county, who had given their names and agreed to subscribe
for shares to testify their approval of the project ; and such
of them as were landowners on the proposed line had en-
gaged to sell their lands on fair and reasonable terms, to be
settled by arbitration in case of difference. The meeting
was addressed at considerable length by various speakers,
and numerous statements explanatory of the nature of the
undertaking were made. A district committee was ap-
pointed to co-operate with the managing committee, and

WOOL MARKET-THIS DAY.

The German Wool market is exceedingly flat, although
the stock is not heavy, and Wools under Zs. per lb. are very
scarce. This has been a very quiet week altogether, the
buyers who attended the late public sales baring returned
to their several localities. The manufacturing districts are
generally doing a good business, and are altogether in a
healthy condition. Tha week's imports are only 24 bales
from Havre, and 703 from Bombay.

TALLOW MARKET.-THIS DAN.

The market is firm today, and prices are fully supported
at the following quotations : Town Tallow, 3fw. Gd. nett
cash; Petcrsburgh Y.C. on the spot, 375. new ; 365. 6d.
old ; last three months, 365. 6d. buyers ; January and
March, 375. 3d., buyers.
M•RILET AVERAGES.—Town Tallow, 395. Gd.; fat by
ditto, 2s. Id. ; Yellow Russian, 38s. Gd. ; melted stuff, 285.;
rough ditto,l7a.; Tallow graves, 95.; good dregs, Gs.
Prices have not advanced for Russian on the spot during
the week, but the demand is more active for home con-
sumption. Fine new yellow Candle realises 375. to 375. 3d.,
and lower rates are not anticipated. For delivery the
amount of business done has been small, with sellers at
365. Oil. up to the close of the year, and at 375. Gd. for the
early part of 1852. Home melted is operated in with
greater freedom, and 375. is the value nett cash, with a firm
market. Other sorts of Tallow are less premed for sale, and
previous rates are sustained ; a fair business also has been
done. Tallow is cheaper than last year, but there is an
excess in stock of 18,000 casks of colonial and foreign ; there
is, however, an increase in deliveries of 1,400 casks. There
is no variation in the value of rough fat.

WEEKLY SUMMARY OF THE PRODUCE
MARKETS.

MINCINO-LANE, SATURDAY MORNING.

In the colonial markets depre'ssion still continues, and
again fur some articles lower prices have been established.
For Sugar the demand was flat at the commencement of the
week, and although we are unable to report any general im-
provement, the sales of to-day have gone off with rather
more spirit. The Coffee market is very dull, at
about Is. per cwt. decline. Rice has been sold to a consi-
derable extent at full rates. The Tea market is geuerally
very flat, but 3,000 chests of fine Congou, ox Surprise, have
been sold at Is. 4d. per lb. and upward'.

Tar ARCTIC

-The committee, of

which Rear-Admiral Bowles, C.D., s chairman, concluded
the rumination of the officers and others of the recent
Arctic expedition on Wednesday lest, and the report of the
result of the labours of the committee will soon be ready.
There is no doubt of another Arctic expedition being fitted
out, so as to take its departute for the polar regions early in
the ensuing spying. it is also the general impression that
the instruction to the expedition of MU will be to devote
its energies to the passage of, or a thorough search up, Wel-
lington Channel, and the direction in which the open waters
of Victoria Channel were observed by Captain Penny in the
early part of the present year.
A Wolf FitIOIITENED TO DEATII DT AN IDIOT.
—Mrs. Wadsworth, the wife of an agent residing at Chest-
wood, near Manchester, died early last Monday morning,
from the effects of a fright. The unfortunate woman, who
was hourly expecting her aceouchement, was at home alone
on Sunday *et, a little after seven o'clock, when John
Richardson, a man of weak intellect, went to the door and
attempted to force an entrance into the house, behaving
with the utmost violence. Mrs. Wadsworth, who had been
attacked by him before, and who knew that he was accus-
tomed to leap on the backs of females in the streets, became
dreadfully alarmed, end when her hesband reached home at
eleven o'clock, she was in such a state that be got her to bed
as speedily as po.aible, and it was with difficulty he learned
the cause. After she was in bed strong convulsive fits
attacked her at about two o'clock, and with such rapidity
that Mr. Wadsworth at once proceeded to fetch his medical
man, but on his return he found her a corpse. A coroner's
jury has since inquired into this lamentable affair, who re-
turned a verdict of " Died from fits, brought on by fright,
caused by John Richardson, a person of unsound mind."
Steps will now be taken to secure the person of the Idiot,
who has long been a terror to the females in the neighbour-
hood. He is maintained by his parents, who are persons
in poor eirannetsams, and are unable to restrain has clan-
gorous ovaries.

RAILWAYS.

THIS DAY.

Two o'CLocw,

The share market presents a decided re:actionto-
day, being mach firmer, at higher prices. The
official announcement made this morning that the'
directors of the Midland railway have decided upon
recommending a dividend at the rate of 2 per cent.
per annum upon the consolidated stock for the last
I half-year, has led to a a recovery from the causeless
pale of yesterday, the market being further assisted
by the increase shown in the traffic returns (as
noticed in another column). As compared with
yesterday's rates, Midlands have risen 305.; Great
Westerns, 11.; London and North-Westerns, 108.;
South Easterns, Ss.; besides an improvement in most
other descriptions. York and North Midlands opened

THE CONCLUDING MEETING

was held in the Guildhall, the President, J. S. HAV.I-0110,
PA., took the chair at one o'clock. The proceedings, as
will be seen below, were confined chiefly to passing various
complimentary resolutions. The attendance was exceed-
ingly limited. In opening the business,
fbe CHAntows said he did nut wonder, considering the
fineness of the weather, that he had to address thin benches
en that occasion, and he believed that the close of the pro-
ceedings of the Institute in other parts of the country had
never been attended by large audiences. The chairman
concluded by calling on
Mr. Te cacti, one of the hon. secretaries, to read the report
of the institute for the past year. The committee congratu-
lated the members on the steady increase in the number of
papers read at the annual meetings. The number of
members was maintains d, notwithstanding that death had
removed several from the society. Having paid a tribute
to the deceased, the committee referred to the investigations
of members in various parts of the kingdom, and mentioned
favourably several works on archeology which bad been
published during the year.
Mr. WAY read the audited accounts, which showed a to-
tal receipt for 1850 of 1,208/. 165., including a balance
from the previous year of 1071. 13s. 4d. ;_ the expenditure
left a balance of 1751. 3s. to be carried to the next ac-
count. Mr. Way mentioned that the arrears of subscrip-
tions of former years bad been much reduced, and the
subscriptions to the publications of the society had been
well paid up.
The CliAlintAX, in proposing the adoption of the report,
supplied an omission which he had made in his opening ad-
dress, by stating that he bad received a letter from his
friend, Sir T. Arland, a name much loved and respected
throughout the west of England, begging that he might
I be added to the list of members, and expressing his sorrow
that a family affliction should have placed it out of his
power to attend the meeting.
The report and accounts having been unanimously
adopted, a central committee was appointed for the en-
' suing year, and Newcastle selected as the next place of
Onmeet. el; f

IRELAND.

DUBLIN, AVOCST 6.
A very interesting meeting or conference was held
yesterday. at the Mansion House, having been spe-
cially summoned by the Lord Mayor, for the pur-
pose of hearing from Mr. Horace Greeley, proprietor
of the New York Tribune, and late a member of the
American Congress, a statement of the views enter-
tained by him and his friends in America ou the sub-
ject of a packet station in Ireland. It would appear
that the visit of Mr. Greeleyto this country had spe-
cial reference to the mutter, as he had just returned
from Galway, whither he had gone for the purpose
of reporting to his friends on the capabilities of that
harbour for the purpose in question. His state-
ment amounted to this : that he and the Irish
party in the United States reckoned on be-
ing able to induce the government there to cause
their mail steamers to make a certain number of ex-
perimental trips to Galway, for the purposes of test-
ing the advantages of that port. Ile appeared to
rely on the influence which could be brought to bear
in America fur affecting this object, and seemed to
consider that all that was netasoary on this side was
to make such preparations as would eusare the
speedy transmission of the mails on their arrival at
Galway, from that place to Dublin. and thence to
Liverpool and London. Mr. Enuis,the Chairman of
the Midland Great Western Railway, who was pre-
sent, undertook on the part of that company that
every necessary preparation for the purpose'
would bo made. Ito stated that the coin-
pony had already applied to the Cuited States
government to make such an experiment as that
now proposed but that they received a refusal. lie
also stated that the company had offered a bonus of
WV. to the master of any steamer who could make
the voyage from New York to Galway in nine days,
with an additional sum for every hour under that
time in which the voyage inlaid be completed.

WORSHIP-STREET.

A middle-aged man named John Jeffries, described as a
hawker, was charged with an assault of an aggravated de-
scription upon a young married Weill= named Elizabeth
Edwards, residing in aden-place, Hackney.
The prisoner in an impudent manner truss-examined the
proaccutrix with a view to prove that she had met him the
same morning at a public-Rouse in the neighbourhood, and
given him encouragement to act so, but she denied that she
had done so, or that there were any grounds for such an im-
putation.
Police-constable 67 N stated that upon the proercutrix
giving the prisoner into his custody she appeared much
alarmed and agitated, and that on taking the latter to the
station he said he was sorry be had not met him first, for
he would then have given her into custody instead, for de-
taining a shilling.
The prisoner was about to enter upon a rambling and
irrelevant defence, but was stopped by the magistrate, who
told him that be had better reserve what it was his inten
Lion to say, as it was his intention to commit him for trial,
and he should, therefore, order him to be remanded tall
Saturday next for the completion of the depositions.
James Andrews, a respeculdy-dressed elderly person, in
independent circumAances, was charged with an assault of
a disgusting character upon a youth, named Juseph Trim-
let, 16 years of age.
The prisoner, who generally denied the offence, was fully
committed to Newgate for trial.

Firmin A. Moron, a Spanish gentleman, aged 40 years,
lately arrived in this country, and who, it was stated, is
• member of the Legislative Council s• Madrid, was charged
with creating • disturbanc: in High-street, Kensington.
John M'Key, T, stated that shortly before six o'clock on
Wednesday night last he was on duty in Ketutington,when be
henrd the loud screaming of a female from the house No. 8,
Palace-gardens, where the defendant resided. He imme-
diately entered the house and saw the defendant holding
the throat of a female, who was screaming "murder" and
"police." The defendant was threatening to have her life,
and said sbe bad betrayed him to Lord Palmerston and his
political enemies. Witness succeeded in restoring order, and

then quitted the hove. The defendant shortly afterwards
came out, and requested witness to turn the female out of
the house. Wituess refused to interfere, and the di fon-
dant instantly proceeded to the police-stutiuu in his car-
riage, where his conduct wits 1.0 violent, and his language
so incoliorent, that the inspector un duty directed witness
to watch him. lite defendant afterwards proceeded to
several 116[04 out witnl 4, suholuently took him into
custody fur protection, and to prevent the inhabitanta fruits
being disturbed.
It plainly appeared from defendant's conduct that he
was of umound mind, and ho was ultimately removed in
charge of his friends.

LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 14, 1851.

THE JUDGE OF THE LIVERPOOL COUNTY
COURT.--LORD CARLISLE'S INQUIRY AT
PRESTON.

PRESTON, Nov. 13.
Mr. Serjeant Wilkins having brought his address
an behalf of Mr. Ramehay to a conclusion this morning, the
first witness called was

Mr. John Stewart, a member of the town council of
Liverpool. He was examined by Mr. Sowler, and deposed
that on the 6th of September he was at the County Court,
and heard the case of a landlord against his tenaat. The
conduct of the judge appeared to be perfectly proper end
courteous. Some letters were produced, and the judge ex•
pre.i.ed a strong opinion that no evidence could alter the
impression that those letters had produced on his mind. A
di-cu .:dun arose between the judge and the solicitor for the
defendant as to calling witnesses, but it never amounted to
a prohibition, and the trial, in witness's opinion, warn con-
ducted in a vety patient manner. The judge asked witness
to hike a seat ea the bench, but he declined, and after hav-
ing been there about an hour he left the court.
Mr. Reeking, estate agent, was present in the County
Court on one or two occasions. The judge's bearing seemed
to be quite calm and judicial, and his decisions clear and
satisfactory. Witness now had eight or nine cases in Mr.
Ramstiay's court. He was present wheu the case " Mercer
e. Roskell" was tried. There was no coercion need towards
the jury by Mr. Ramshay, but he put the case before them
in a proper and regular manner.
Mr. Lawrence Green, solicitor, of Liverpool. examined
by S:rjeant Wilkins, deposed that in his opinion Mr. Ram-
shay is a most admirable judge. An unfavourable impres-
sion had been made on witness's mind, which, however, '
was removed by his attending the court and seeing the
manner in which the iudge conducted the busiuess. The
only fault he had to find was that the judge was too patient,
amounting almost to tediousness.
Mr. Win. Morris, for 13 years managing clerk to Mr.
Bullen, solicitor, of Liverpool, is personally acquainted with
Mr. Itamshay. Had frequently been present in his court,
and considered his conduct to be uniformly comic', cool, and
dignified.
Several solicitors practising in Liverpool gave similar
testimony, and the examination of witnesses was proceed.
ing when our report was despatched.

THE POLICE COURTS.

GUILDHALL.
William Griffith Kemp was charged with baying pre-
sented a forged cheque at the Loudon and Westminster
Bank, on NVednesday last. The cheque, which was for
391. 10s., and dated 12th November, 1841, purported to be
drawn by William Palmer in favour of Cook and Co. A
person of that name had an account at the bank, but the
cashier doubting the genuiness of the signature, made some
inquiry which resulted iu the prisoner being given into
custody. Ile stated to the officer that he was a porter,
living at 3, Church-street, Islington, and that on the morn-
ing of Wednesday a gentleman called on him and said
he hail been recommended to hint by a silversmith, and
asked if he would go to Debeuhain and Storr's, in King-
street, Covent-garden, get a catalogue of the next day's
sale, and bring it to him at Johnson's sale-rooms, Grace-
church-street. Ile did so, and having met the person who
employed him he then directed him to go to the Bank and
get the cheque in question changed for gold and bring the
amount to him at the sale-rooms. The officer allowed the
prisoner to go back to the sule-rooms after he was taken
into custody in order that he might point out the person
who sent him to the Bank, but he was unable to do so. Ile
was then taken to his own house in ieliugton in order to
see if the person in question would come there to receive
the money, where he waited till six o'clock without any-
thing being heard of
Mr. Palmer, who is a draper, residing at 18, Aldgate,
stated that the signature was nut his, nor had he authorised
any one to draw any such cheque, he having, in fact, with-
drawn his amnia tram the bank two months ago.
It appeared that the prisoner had hitherto borne every good
character, and the court expressed an opinion that he had
been the dupe of some designing person ; but a brother of Mr.
Palmer's, who was in his cuipley, came forward in a state
of great excitement and said that it the case was adjourned
he could produce witnesses who would identify the prisoner
as a person who was found on the stairs in his brother's
house on the dth of June last. He was anxious to have
the matter investigated, as his brother was sot altogether
satisfied that suspicion did not attach to othen besides the
prisoner.

GERMANY.

BERLIN, Nov. 12.
" Leopold Frederick, by God's grace, high and
mighty reigning Duke of Anhault, Duke Gothen,
Duke of Saxony, Eugern and Westphalia, Count of
Askania, and Lord of Zerbst, Bernberg and Grobzig,"
has just issued a proclamation, abolishing on his sole
high and mighty authority the constitution of the
duchies over which he is so grand a potentate. The
population of these duchies is about the same as
that of Cologne—under 100,000 souls ; but this
pigmy prince steps forward, nevertheless, to express
the real sentiments of the Federal Diet of all Ger-
many. However ridiculously hateful, therefore, the
display he has made of his petty absolutism would
otherwise be, it is as formidable as hateful when one
considers that the puppet has Russia, Austria, and
Prussia, and all the German governments repre-
sented at Frankfort at his back.

IN RE THE ARBITBAIION—OTTIRADLEY AND IBBOT-

0140 END THAT THE ARBITRATOR HAD REILsED TO EX-
AMINE MATERIAL WITBEtottS.
. . . . .

Mr. Phipson moved for a rule to show cause why the
award made in this ease should not be set aside on the
ground of the arbitrator refusing to examine important wit-
nehes. The reference was under an agreement dated the
sth of June last, and the award was made on the let of
August. Mr. Bradley in his affidavit stated that at the
several times appointed for the hearing of the matter he at-
tended before the arbitrator, and produced three witnesses
for examination, stating that their evidence was necessary
to prove a set-off to the claim of Ibbotson, who had not
given credit fur certain MAIM of money paid him. The arbi-
trator, however, refused to elAlllitle two of those witnemes.
Mr. Justice Erle—Does the deponent state any reason
aaaigucd by the arbitrator for not examining them.
Mr. Phipson—No, he does nut, hut he swears that the
evidence of these witnea ot was important, so as to usable
the rabitrator to determine satisfactorily the matters in
dispute. Mr. Ibbotson claimed 98f. on account of expenees
incurred in travelling over the country with n certain horse
named Don Juan.

Mr. Justice Erie said he thought it would be more satis-
factory for the learned counsel to renew his application,
stating the grounds of the arbitrator's refusal to examine
the witnesses tendered. lie reeallected a motion of u
similar character having been made, and subsequently it
turned out that the ariiitmtor had refused to examine wit-
nesses on the ground that the party had admitted the facts
is r.spect to which they were called upon to give evidence.
Mr. l'hiiaon said he would have the affidavit amended,
