Her Majesty's packet Penguin, Lient. Leslie, ar-
rived at -Falmouth yesterday morning from Rio
Janeiro in 47 days, having sailed on Arch 25th.
Her news is of little general moment in consequence
sf the late mercantile arrivals from that quarter
politically there is reported to be nothing to mention ;
and from the River Plate matters remain In the elms
4ate as before reported, and as adviees mention, "are
likely ever to continue." The Penguin had on freight
about 10,0001. more or less, and the followieg pas-
imagers :—Vimount Mareuil (French Minister). and
lady and servant ; Mr. and Mrs. Barton and family ;
Mr. Petty, Mr. Lyre, Mr. Mole, Mons. Jogoet, Com-
mander Massingberd, R N., Mr. Theremin (Prussian
Consul General), Mr. Renner, Senor J. Baptiste de
Foams, Miss Bawden, Mr. C. B. Read, Lient.
Meheux, Elizabeth Seymour, and several children.
H.M.S. Amazon sailed on March 2 from Rio for
the East Indies; the Alecto on the 21st for the River
Plate; the Tweed on 23rd for Pernambuco; the
Hydra at., Express packet, and Crescent receiving
ship, remained; also left there the Brazilian corvettes
Januario, Unias, and war-steamer Affonzo ; also the
United States brig-of-war Perry. Some ex-
citement had been created in the money market at
Rio by a report obtaining credit that the imperial
government bad determined upon a further increase
of the fended debt ; which rumour had caused stock
to recede from 87 to 88, very flat, with a lower ten-

ittaisr.

IRELAND.

Manz, Kasen 18.
At the county of Carlow meeting a check has been
given to the anti-rate in aid agitation. An amend-
ment was moved to a string of resolutions against the
rate, to the effect that " a rate in aid was the most
feasible remedy that could be devised for the relief of
the west and south of Ireland. It was the only
means whereby the lives of the poor could be pre-
served from the horrible death of starvation.
The Rev. Mr. Mahon, a catholic priest of consider-
able notoriety as a quondam agitator, made a
very strong speech against the landlord party.
The amendnrat was carried by an overwhelming
majority. This meeting will give the tone to the
southern fteling upon the measure.
The mortality in the poor law staff continues. At
Bantry another victim has fallen in Mr. Adams, the
vice-guardian. He was a member of an ancient
family in the county of Cork, and was one of the four
paid guardians selected from the Fermoy Union,
having befn appointed not long after the late Mr.
Stephen Barry, another of the victims. Yet hundreds
upon hundreds of the gentry are looking for these
posts.
We have a dreary record of assize intelligence in
the provincial papers, but there are no particular
cases worthy of notice. The general character of the
evidence offered at the trials is in itself enough to
show the disorganistd condition of our soc'ety.

PROVINCIAL

FATAL RAILWAY MINING ACClDlLLM—Yeaterday
a man named William Mackenzie, a subcontractor on the
Bheol.ld, Rotherham, Barnsley, Huddersfield, Wakefield,
and Gaols Railway, died at the Leeds General Infirmary
of injuries received by a fell down a shaft of the tunnel at
Woolley Edge, near Wakefield. The deceased,
who was a married man, about thirty-two years
of age, descended the shaft for the first time on
Friday night, the 9th inst., about six o'clock, and
was ascending in a skip, about two o'clock on Saturday
morning, with a miner, a native of Wales, to partake of the
midnight meal, when the rope Woke and they were both
precipitated I. the bottom, a distance of fourteen or sixteen
yards. Their fall was to some extent impeded by a bombs'
placed acmes the shaft, she they would have been dashed to
pieces. Both the men were very much bruised internally,
the ribs of each being bet ken, Mackenzie being also much
injured about the head and face ; and this complication of
injuries caused his death, as stated. The other man
however, going on favourably at prewnt.

MEETING IN CORNWALL.

A meeting of *pi/Naturists took place at the Town-
hall, St. Gerisemeos HereAsy lest, when
Mr. B. BEM& mud tbe first resolution. He said the
poor rates were , sad every Sher tax was increas-
ing, that the emu= paid a fourth peet-of these Umes, end
at the same time bed no protection afforded then. There
must be a ohmage is this ; the tares must be fairly propor
tinned, the unnecamary ex esolitun of the government must
be reduced, great retresehmeats must be mad*, else • very
sad state rattling' would be the emasequesee. After otts r
remarks the speaker eateladed by moving
That, from the ruinously low prim elan sericulture at the present
time, the owners sad trecupisn do smite humbly het firmly in stating
their griev moos to the legislature, and praying them to take into int.
mediate consideretkm the unjust and oaegaai burden* now imposed
upon them.
Mr. K. OTIOGHERTY seconded the resolution. He be-
lieved the burdens upon the farmer at the present time were
sub uthey 'maid not bear. This might be called a land-
lord's question, but it was thus far a tenant's question, that
they bad to pay their landlord his rent,and that, if the bur-
dens continued le at pew at, sad they had always increased
instead of diminished, they would not be able to do so.
(Rear.) In his opinion all the taxes, without exception,
ought to be reduced, and then, not only the agricultural in-
terest, but the nation generally, would be benefited ; but
this was a question for the nation to consider ; if all felt the
burdens pressing upon them as heavily as the farmers did,
there would soon be a stop put to the extravagant expendi-
ture of the government.
Mr. T. B BLAKE proposed:
That the present meeting feel. that a general redectka vhould be
made in the general expenditure or the government, sad u the art.
wharfs* are compelled to come down to the catimental prices, the
expenses of all government officers ought to be curtailed in the same
proportion, which this meeting hopes will be the means of averting
the calamities other nations have suffered, and enable the gOVITIIMOISt
to relieve the agriraltarists from some of the taxis that press so
very heavily on them.
Mr. W. PALMER seconded the rnelution —Carried.
A petition in accordance with the sentiments of the meet-
ing having been prepared, wee taken round to the different
farmers for signature. The Plymouth Journal saw.
" The total tithe measurement of toe ten parishes comprised
in the petition is about 32,000; the number represented by
the division is more than 25,600, leaving littk more than
0,000 unrepresented by it, and this balance unrepresented
would have been still less, had there been longer time allowed
' for procuring signatures, but dam was only Tuesday and
Wedt.esday. The petition is 15 feet long, and has been
signed by several hundred owners and occupiers of land.

INQUESTS.
SEs 7111.1 IX TEI 111110117.1,

Before Mr. W. Fyne, ittise Fountain, Minoring',
to inquire into the Statutes:as conasted with the fire
which careered at No. 139, Masks, an Tuesday night last.
Capt. L Prestos, of the Prussian only, stated that be
lodged in the scald floor of the hose in which the fire oc-
curred. The shop was occupied raseelisly by Kies Shields,
a sillies, sad Mho Smile, a stsysaker. Oa Tuesday
night, about half-pest tea o'clock, his wits west to bed, and
whilst he was sitting in the nos be esperinced a strop,
smell of sosethiag
_lasing. Re called to his wife about
it. what he heard Nis Shields go from the Ant floor front
lead aloes the des. The ...Ti then decreased. Shortly

afterwards he heard • wean from below. 17pon getting to
the first floor he found • body of flame fa the out,* of the
front rooms. Mira Shklds was standing in the pas-
sage. He immediately closed the door, ran up
stain, and took his wife out of bed, and carried
her down. As be passed the second time he found
the door which he had previously eland open. Rav-
ing banded his wife to a friend, he returned, and taking
Miss Shields round the waist he attempted to carry her
down, when he tail to the bottom of the stairs and injured
his head. Captain Atkinson came and assisted him, and he
got her out, and some other persons. Miss Shields, a Sunday
or two ego, said, " What • pity it was that he was not
insured." He had lost everything in the fire. He received
en enonymons letter a few weeks since advising him to re-
move. He took the lett( rto the koliee-station, and showed
it to the inspector.
Janet Brenton proved that she worked for Miss Shields,
and left oa the night of the fire at half past 10 o'clock.
There was then no smell of fire.
Captain Atkinson confirmed this evidence, and wan quite
positive that when he went to the show-room the fire
was in the centre of the room, and that neither the curtain
nor the taper in the roam were on fire.
Miss Elisabeth Shields and that whilst sitting in her bath
room she heard a noise in the show-room like a " token."
She went in and found the curtains and table near the win-
dow in flames, and shortly afterwards the paper round the
room peeled off alight and fired the other table. She had
been insured for 1001. for five yew, which she had leagued
to 2001. last year.
The jury returned a verdict, that " there was not sofa-
dent evidence to prove how the fire originated."

By this mail we have received the journals of Con-
stantinople to the 4th, and of Athens to the Bth inst.
Abbas Pacha, governor-general of Egypt, and Mae-
loom Bay, minister of justice, were Mill waiting to

Larissa, most of the inhabitants had taken flight, and
found refuge in the surrounding towns and villages.

PERSlA.—Letters received from Persia of the 4th
November, say that the greatest anarchy signs in that coun-

ments. Whether he will succeed in the Present enfeebled
state of the sov.reign authority time alone will show. The

IMPORTANT FROM JAMAICA

By the arrival of the West India Mail steamer
Temot, at Southampton, we have dates from Jamaica
to the 22nd of Dec. The Tevoit bangs 1,166,250
dollars on merchants' accounts, and 25,363 dollars on
account of dividends.
Berbadoes was healthier.
The weather in the West Indies was favourable.
The Legislative Council and government of Jamaica

Mexican Congress adjourned on the 2nd December.
Banta Anna was suspected of being implicated in

ITALY.

SARDINIA.—We read in the Genoa Gazette :
" The government, being informed that Urbino, of
Mantua, the author of the revolt of the 29th of May
against the Provisional Government of Milan, and of

the revolutilir;;ryproclanation addressed froM Paris,
on the let of September, to the Genoese, had arrived
here with a French passport, under the name of For.
tune, designated ma a commercial traveller, for the
purpose of propagating the subversive principles of
socoalism, mused a search to be made at his residence,
and, papers having been there found proving his in-
, tentions, he has been arrested and will be brought to
I trial.

ROMAN STATES.—La Constituente of the 16th
says the report gains every day fresh confirmation
that a Spanish squadron, with 12,000 Spanish and
Portuguese soldiers on board, has sailed for Gaeta.
LOMBARDY=The Constituents Italian of the

16th states that Marshal Radetzki was about to re-
move his head-quarters to Crema. The military
hospitals and tressure-ohests were already as route
for that place.
The Concordia of Turin states that accounts have
been

received from Lombardy, which are of a nature
to give encouragement to the Piedmontese. it says
that the Austrians are under the necessity of fortit-
ing themselves in Mantua and Verona, and that they
have a provision of corn for only three months, and
have been compelled to throw away their sat pro-
visions, as they were spoiled. It is added that from
10,000 to 12,000 Auetriene have marched into Ger-
many through Verona and Vicenza, and that there
are now in the Italian provinces only about double
that number. This account differs materially from
that given in some of the Austrian journals, accord-
I~to which large reinforcements were being sent into
Itay.
The Milan Gazelle, of the 18th inst, publishes an
official notice, stating that, from political and military
considerations,the communications between Lombardy
and Piedmont are closed in various parte. but others
are indicated which remain open.

NAPLES.—A correspondent of the Univers writes
from Naples on the 14th :
You know that the King of Sardinia, or rather his mi-
nister, the Abl e Gioberti, him sent to Naples a charge
d'affaires, Pleas, well known for his advanced opinions,
which is bat a sad diplomatic retionsenendatfon ; but perhaps
you do not know the proposition Gioberti is charged with
making to the Nmpohttn cabinet. An offensive and defen-
sive anima against Austria ! On this condition Charles
Albert omegas that his son, the Duke of Savoy, shall defini-
tively renounce the crown of Steely ! At another epoch,
when Charles Albert had not yet been conquered by Radets
ki, when the King of Naples had not yet stifi,d revolt in
his own kingdom. When the Sicilians seriously thought of
having the son of the King of Sardinia for their King, suc►
a proposition might haye been conceivable, but now it can
only be considered as an insult. Consequently the Neapoli•
tan cabinet has refused to listen to it, and the Sardinian en-
voy has not been received.

AMERICA.
ARRIVAL OF THE EUROPA.

The British and North American Royal Moil

is an unusually good one, her departure from Wiston
being on the 19th inetant. She made the usu.,' call
at Halifax on the 21st. The Europa bring., the mils
and a considerable number of passengers, but not the
President's message, which was excemed by the hive
previous arrivals, and certainly by the Bump.
The Hibernia, which hailed hence for New York on
the let instant, bad arrived at her deelination. The
America, which sailed for Botta., wasnot expeetPdae

The 'hare market this morning opened fiat, and
without any improvement on Saturday's Weis Cale-
donians declining to 10, Midlands to 421, Great
Westerns to 661, and London and North Westerns to

market for shares is generally a shade firmer, though
the improvement is principally confined to the specu-
lative descriptions, the leading stocks remaining heavy.
London and North Westerns are at present called

NIOLECT OF 011186E1U.

CHAIM= WILLIAM Thaws claimed • rleht to vote in re-
stint of premises at 182, Upper Thames-sweet, parish of S..
James Garlick liythe, his name having, as he alleged. been
improperly omitted from the list.
Mr. SHIPHIRD, poor rate collector of the parish, stated
that the claimant was not rated; but It appeared that in
February last the party had tent in a claim to be rated " for
the time beteg," and that the overseers had neglected to
place the name on the rats•book.
Mr. Benz urged that the omission, on the part of the
overseen, had the effect of disqualifying Mr. Dews; and as
it was proved that the claimant had as mush right to a vote
as any other person on the list he (Mr. Smith) must cal
upon the court, under the authority of the act, to fine the
overseers for neglect of duty.
Mr. Bagwell, the overseer, was sent for in order that he
might explain the omirion. but es he did not make his ap.
Mr. WCIIRISTIII said he should fine him 31., and the
claim must be disallowed. . .

M;.llanwzit enuredhere the court, and s`ated that be
had no recollection of a claim to be rated having been served
open him by Mr. Dawn, who was his own tenant ; but if he
had received such notice, he mut have handed it over to
Mr. Shep_herd, the rate collector.
Mr. M'Culiterts said the overseer bad no power to
delegate his duty to another, end he was responsible for
the onibelon complained of. He would, however, withdraw
the fine In the present cue, but he begged it might
be understood that overseers were liable to a heavy penalty
where it was proved that • party had been disfranchised
through their negligence.
The following is the result of the revision of the list for
Breed-street, Queenhithe, and Vintry Ward .

From Bermuda the steamer brings intelligence of
one interesting feet, that an attempt is being made
to obtain at least fifty peasants or labourers from the
island of Madeira, to reside at Bermuda, and
agricultural labour. The emigrants are to perform
class suitahio to perform agricultural labour, and it is
supposed, from their simple habits, they will be less
liable to swerve from the path of duty than those ac-
customed to the vices of English towns. A similar ex-
periment is said to have been successfully tried in
Thoidad and Demerara. For my own part, I think
that if the Bermudians would publicly offer some of
their lands for sale in New York, or would aim to
give the current wages to labourers to be taken to
Bermuda, they would find their plantations profitable
at onto. We are at this moment in want of
many of gtheir prodocions ; they would bear a
pries Sweet potatoes, for example, pay well
In New Yak; but our market, instead of havuog those
delicious ones which are raised in Bermada, is sup-
plied with an inferior kind raised in the state of New
Jersey. On the contrary, every now and then the
Bermudians send us a few barrels of onions, articles
which we produce in the greatest perfection. How-
ever, I have said enough on this subject, and we will
thcr.Lire, ass an Americanism, " let it slide."
