THE MURDER OF MISS HINDS

The jury in the case.; of Thomas Dunn, charged at the
Cavan Special Commission, with conspiaing to procure
the murder of Miss Hinds, having returned a verdict of
" guilty," the prisoner, together with James Murphy,
convicted of the actual murder of that unfortunate lady,
was put forward in the course of Saturday afternoon to
receive the final sentence of the law. Chief Justice
Monaghan addressed the nrisoners at some length, com-
menting, in terms calculated to produce an impression on
the peasantry of th,‘ country, not only of the atrocity of
the crime, but upon the. open way in which the conspiracy
for its commission was carried on, and the insane confi-
dence which the several accomplices placed in one
another—confidence which was invariably and most
surely betrayed in all such cases. The prisoners were
each of them sentenced to be hanged on the 16th of May,
the body of Murphy to be buried within the precints of
the gaol, and that of Donn, at the wretched man's own
entreaty, to be given up to his friends. Dunn protested
his innocence with great firmness, and asserted that the
approvers were the real perpetrators of the crime. Red
A.-'at Bannon, the other person engaged with Murphy in
the actual commission of the murder, has, it is supposed,
escaped to America. Some prisoners charged with a riot
were discharged on bail, and the special commission was
declared to be closed.

these simple truths make Lords HARDWICKE
and STANLEY blush, or will they be thrown away on
the Government? Finally, will the Mayor, mer-
chants, shipowners, manufacturers, bankers, and
traders of Liverpool and the North, allow jobbery
to rob them once more of what ought to be theirs,
if the national and colonial welfare is to be
considered? Liverpool is the best port in the
kingdom for the Australian packet station,
and the Panama, if not the shortest, is the quickest
and best route; and these facts ought to be brought
to the knowledge of the Legislature without delay
in the form of an address, emanating from a town's
meeting, presided over by the Mayor of Liverpool.

THE MURDER OF MRS. KELLY

DUBLIN, Tuesday.—The coroner's jury have returned a
verdict of " wilful murder" against two persons unknown.
It was not deemed, at present, expedient to examine
many of the witnesses who were in attendance, as the
police have foun l, in some of the houses on the lands
belonging to the unfortunate lady, various articles sup-
posed to have been worn as disguises by the assassins,
whom, they imagine, they have probable means of dis-
covering and tringing to justice. At the present moment
the magistrates are engaged, in private, receiving infor-
mations. There are at present five persons in custody—
Mr. Strevens, the nephew of the deceased, and four of her
tenants.

DEFENCE OF SEE ISTOPOL. —ACCOrdthg to statistic returns
published in the St. Petersburg newspapers, the besieged
in
Sebastopol discharged from the 17th of October, 1854, to
the Bth of September, 1855, projectiles to the number of
1.386,608, an,l weighing 1,405,249 pounds (each equal to
401bs). in addition to the above, 205,810 ponds of powder,
and 25,000,000 cartridges were consumed.
IMPROVEMENTS IN SUGAR. MACHINERY.—There was a
considerable gathering of West India and Demerara
propreitors at the Crystal Palace on Saturday to see the
sugar mill invented and patented by Messrs. De Morney
at work on fresh canes imported from Madeira fot the
purpose of affording ocular proof of its simplicity and
efficiency. Both its resisting and its crushing powers were
fully tested, and the manner in which it took in the
canes and delivered the megass at the other end was
most satisfactory. It left no refuse, and the juice was
particularly free from the minute particles which com-
monly accompany it. The megass, after receiving the
last squeeze, was deprived of nearly every appreciable
amount of juice, and the residue afforded unmistakeable
evidence of the expressing power of the mill. So little
juice remained that the fibre felt barely damp. We can
easily conceive this mill producing from 10 to 15 per
cent. more sugar than the ordinary three-roller mill. Its
most prominent features are its simplicity and the substitu-
don of a crushing roller of great power for the fixed dump
I turner.

THE SABBATH QUESTION

TO THE EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN TIMES.
Sir, —Will you permit me to offer a few words
in reference to the passage quoted and commented
on by your anti-Sabbatarian correspondent, in your
Saturday's impression.
I think it • quite-, competent for either early or
modern Christians to agree,._to call the first day
of the week the "Christian Sabbath," " Sunday,"
" Lord's day," or any other name they may think
proper, but I think it would be well to keep Chris-
tian people of our day informed, that (inch-titles had
their origin in the habits of thought and expression
of people who, however good, pious, and zealous,
were-yet not a whit more competent or wiser than
themselves.

If the term " Christian Sabbath," be thought more
decorous or comely than " Sunday,"or the",first day of
the week," let it be adopted. Let the fathers, if you
will, be ransacked for their venerable sanction for
the change ; but, then, let credit be given in the
proper quarter, either for its original invention or
continued use; but let Christians be kept informed
that the Scripture is silent on the subject, and that
the term " Christian Sabbath," is as strange to the
letter of the Christian book, as the ceremonial at
present known by that name is foreign to its
spirit.

- Any person-reafling the Scripture-With tolerable
attention, will notice the very prominent. price
given in all the enis

hope and glorious appeari

TO be SOLD, by Private Treaty, the PLANT,
FIXTURES, and LEASES of a COLLIERY, in
consequence of the decease of the Senior Partner.

TheBAGILLT COLLERIES are situated at lia.;1.111t, in the Parish of
Holywell, in the County of Flint, and are held under Leases from
different Landlords, having from Six to Eighteen years unexp red.
The Col.eries are now in work, and carable, with a moderate out.
lay of capital, of being great!), enlarged and made highly remunera-
tive. The PLANT and STOCK consist of Pits, Pumping and Wind-
ing F.ngines, P.-heads' Chains, Pulleys, and other Winding
Requisites, Und,rground and Surface Tramways, Waggons. &c.,
with numerous Pumps, Boilers, and other Articles in Stock indis_
pensable for Colliery purposes. Within three quarters of a mile
from the Fite, and approached therefrom by a Tramway, is the
Bagilit Shipping-stige, with Reservoir and Land adjoining, which
is Freehold, measuring 7A. 2a. 24p., or thereabouts ' • and, in
addition, there are also Two other Lots of Freehold Property,
measuring 2A oa. SP. or thereabouts, with Agents' and Work-
men's Cottag-s erected thereon. The Lands under Lease are
bounded on the east by the Bagillt-marsh, and comprise several
Hundred Acres of Mineral Ground, containing Six Workaole Beds,
averaging in thickness from three to six feet, making an aggregate
of thirty-one feet six inches of Coal, and which has been found to
answer well for Steam and Furnace purposes. One of the Beds
contains two feet kix inches of Cannel Coal, of superior quality, well
adapted for Gas and Household Purposes:

The proximity of this Property 'to the Chester and Holyhead
Railway, the large Lead Smelting Establishments of the County.
and the River Vee, over which Cods can be conveyed to Liverpool,
Ireland, and the Welsh Coasts at easy rates of freight, makes it a
most desirable investment for any Party with a moderate c,mmand
of Capital desirous cf embarking in the Coal Trade.

cannot, with propriety, dissolve until they are in toa
condition to submit the ratified treaty of peace e
hay
to Parliament. But as soon as they have done so, we
scarcely a doubt that they will throw themselves on 4
country and try the chances of a general election. We
frankly admit that it is not without misgiving that nt
look forward to a general election at the Preeevc",
moment. But with a full sense of this difficulty'
are, nevertheless, convinced that it would materially

damage the cause of Liberalism to postpone a di!sole..
